Prop12: Yes: 63.5% No: 36.5% -Passed
These are the Results as they stand currently and only 2 seem to be under speculation. The first one under speculation is Prop 11, because the counting is so close they are probably going to recount to make sure that this measure did indeed pass, as it looks right now. The only other proposition under scrutiny is Prop 8. Three lawsuits have been filed on behalf of gay rights supporters. Just wanted to post the results for anyone who wanted them. I won't lie I'm not the happiest about the results, but I know things will work themselves out. I'm still in a state of shock after Prop 8 passed, but I do not believe that Prop 8 will be upheld because even if the majority believes in discrimination, it's still discrimination and it's still wrong. Next year if we voted on Heterosexual marriage or in Christian marriage, then what? It's not fair. I believe in democracy though and I believe that in this country Equality is for ALL and that something like a gay marriage ban will not stand, not in California, not anywhere!!! I know that similar measures passed in Arizona and Florida and personally I don't believe that they can stand very long either.
