Seven months after the New Jersey Senate failed to pass a gay marriage law, and nearly a month after the New Jersey Supreme Court refused to hear a gay case, speculation runs rampant through the state and the nation. Senator Lesniak (D) blamed his own party as being without a moral compass. Others blamed the Governor, the first Republican to win a statewide election in New Jersey in 12 years.

A federal judge declared California’s ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional Wednesday, saying that no legitimate state interest justified treating gay and lesbian couples differently from others and that “moral disapproval” was not enough to save the voter-passed Proposition 8. The California Supreme Court ruled 4 to 3 that gays and lesbians were entitled to marry under the state Constitution in a historic ruling in May 2008. Voters passed Proposition 8 six months later, amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
