California voter’s fought and won a constitutional ban that will prohibit marriage between two people of the same sex. After a $75 million campaign, voters decided the outcome of Proposition 8, dealing a blow to the gay and lesbian right’s of men and women throughout the state of California.
Those who supported the ban focused on a few key issues during their campaigning of the bill. They believed that young children would be forced to accept gay marriages whether or not they wanted to. They believed this would be harmful for young children to accept. They al
so argued that churches that refused to perform gay marriage ceremonies would be sanctioned and that the institution of marriage would end up being destroyed.
