Gay marriage debate may heat up as Georgia prepares for vote
[KRISTEN WYATT]
Where did Georgia's gay marriage debate go?
The firecracker issue dominated headlines and water-cooler talk during last winter's legislative session, but once the constitutional amendment was confirmed by lawmakers and sent to voters, both sides quieted.
The loudest supporters of the amendment, the Christian Coalition of Georgia, turned their sights to summer primary elections. On the other side, a coalition of nearly 100 groups that support gay rights had difficulty getting organized and raising money.
Now, less than two months before voters decide whether same-sex marriages should be banned in the state constitution, not just the law, both sides are weighing the best tactics for success in November.
