Despite Texas Loss Anti-Gay Vote Tide May Be Changing

An analysis of voter trends in Tuesday's off-year election shows that the country appears to be mellowing to gay issues and candidates despite the approval by the electorate in Texas of an anti-gay marriage amendment.

The biggest gay win Tuesday was in Maine where voters rejected an attempt to overturn the state's LGBT civil rights law.

In Cleveland Heights, Ohio, a city council member who fought against the nation's first voter-approved domestic partner registry lost a bid for re-election to a candidate who is openly gay.

In Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Dan Miller garnered 22% of the vote, enough to secure a new seat on the Harrisburg City Council. This marks the first time an openly gay candidate was elected in that city.

I think this is the Religious Wrong's last hurrah.

I think that we need to keep networking (progressives), and continuing to support each other. I think we need to continue being good examples of friends who live in peace together, and who support each other. I think that their hostile, hateful behavior will become unpopular and die out.
