NY: Poll Finds 51% of NY Voters Support Gay Marriage

Many New Yorkers are taking to the streets to vent their frustrations, after the State Senate voted down a bill that would have given gay and lesbian couples the right to marry in New York State. --- The vote comes in the wake of a new poll that finds a slim majority of New Yorkers in support of legalizing gay marriage. In a Marist College survey of 805 registered voters statewide, 51 percent say they support same-sex marriage and 42 percent oppose it. The same poll found that 61 percent of surveyed New York City voters supported gay marriage.
