Add Vermont

[bryant]

The Governor's veto of the gay marriage bill was overridden, by a tiny tiny margin. But one vote is one vote!

Votes count. Contacting your representative counts. I like how fast they did it after the veto, too.

I'm proud to be a Vermonter, insofar as someone who's lived here since 1998 and has no intention of living anywhere else can be called a "Vermonter".

Awesome!

That's awesome sauce. :D

Yay, Vermont! They were probably embarrassed Iowa beat 'em to it. I'm looking forward to NH reading their own dang motto and jumping on board.

It's unfortunate that Douglas happens to be against gay marriage, as most of the alternatives at election time are total psychos, as far as I can tell. (Leastways, I got the tip from my socially liberal family to vote for him, which must mean the other options were pretty wretched.)

That tiny, tiny margin for veto override means it's actually a 2/3 majority in both houses. I'll toast that with a Woodchuck cider any day!
