Richard Tisei will make a great LT. Gov. He has experience, knowledge and the ability to weave through the mess at the Gold Top. He is a great man and everyone should vote for him.

CB, in the US the right of women to vote (allowed by the 19th Amendment) was essentially put up to a popular vote, since amendments have to be passed by Congress then ratified by either state legislatures or by ratifying conventions.

That’s one of the things that made the prospect of a Constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage so frightening. It probably would easily pass the required number of state legislatures without any serious consideration of the implications.

Sorry, I still believe that a Republican vote is a vote against civil rights and gay rights. Civil rights is judiciary, not for a popular vote. If we go back in history, how do you think a popular vote would have gone to abolish slavery? Women’s right to vote?

I’m reading that Mihos supported same sex marriage in 2006 but that it should go to a popular vote. Is he still for a popular vote on the issue?

Anyway it’s good to see people have viable options instead of being antagonized into one of them.
