New Maine Gay Marriage Poll: 51% Favor Repeal

With one day to go before the election, a new poll shows that voters in Maine favor repealing the gay marriage law by 51% to 47%, virtually a tie given the poll’s margin of error or plus or minus 2.9 percentage points. The latest results released on Monday showed slight movement in favor of Question 1, the ballot initiative that would repeal the gay marriage law, since a poll two weeks ago showed the measure tied at 48%. The poling company, Public Policy Polling , said the results indicate that the age of voters who turn out will be key to the outcome in Maine.
