At last check the tally was 66.28% in favor of either gay marriage, or a civil union, with 33.73% opposed. I have to say that I am surprised by that. Behold, the power of the internet, indeed.
I still, however, would be very interested to see if The American Family Association will still present the results of this poll to the United States Congress as the results are not going their way.
On a final note; I received this in my inbox this morning, and thought that I would share it with you all...

Dear Robert,
I want to take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas, and to offer my sincerest thanks for signing the American Family Association's poll on marriage.
This issue in America today is so near and dear to my heart. As a former homosexual, I believed I was born "gay." After 11 years in the "gay" lifestyle my life changed in 1992 when a Christian woman lovingly confronted me and my homosexuality with the gospel of Jesus Christ. I couldn't help but see the truth in God's Word that my homosexuality was sin before a holy God.
Lives world wide are being changed daily by the power of Jesus Christ. I am one of thousands of men and women who have walked away from homosexuality, and who have become the men and women that God has created us to be.
The American Family Association has a real heart to reach America with the truth about homosexuality, take an uncompromising stand on God's Word and defend the sanctity and holiness of heterosexual marriage. More importantly, we do so because AFA has a real love for the homosexual.
We are all sinners and all need a Savior -- and His name is Jesus Christ. What better time of year than this Christmas season to give your life to Jesus Christ.
If you or someone you know is struggling with homosexuality, I encourage you to visit the AFA website where you can hear my testimony and find a variety of resources to help the homosexual.
May God bless you this Christmas season as we celebrate the birth of that precious baby in a manger who came for one reason -- to die on that cross for sinners like you and me.
With love this Christmas,
Stephen Bennett
