(CPOD) Nov. 25, 2004 - A proposal to enact a state amendment that would ban same-sex marriage has split public opinion in Arizona, according to a poll by the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University and KAET-TV. 49 per cent of respondents support the idea, while 43 per cent disagree.
Marriage certificates were issued to same-sex couples by local governments in the states of California, Oregon, New Mexico and New York earlier this year. In May, the state of Massachusetts allowed gay and lesbian partners to apply for marriage licenses, the first state-sanctioned homosexual weddings in the U.S.
Earlier this month, voters in 11 American states enacted amendments to define marriage as the union between a man and a woman.
