Hey, the Boston.com poll on out-of-state gay marriages needs some DUing!
http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2008/07/15/Survey_gay_marriage/

As of now:

Should out-of-state gay couples be allowed to get married in Massachusetts?

Yes. 59.0% Allowing out-of-staters to marry here would expand individual rights and simultaneously boost the state's economy with increased spending on tourism and wedding preparations.

No. 41.0% The 1913 ban on out-of-staters marrying in the state should not be repealed because it would infringe on the rights of other states to determine their own requirements for marriage.

Total votes: 1645
