Just got a call from my sister, Sharon, who is in the Maine State Capitol. A few minutes ago, the Maine House of Representatives passed the same-sex marriage bill by a margin of 89 - 58. The State Senate passed the bill last week.
The big question now is whether Governor John Baldacci will sign the legislation. It's hard to imagine he won't. Baldacci has a solid record on LGBT issues. He knows how important this.
We can deal with the possible referendum question after the governor signs marriage equality into law.
