Read this quotation from Len Deo, president of the nonprofit New Jersey Policy Council — which opposes marriage equality.
“They don’t have the votes. It would be a real tragedy if it was passed in lame-duck.”
Maybe I’m misreading this, but he seems to be saying that they don’t have the votes, but it could pass — otherwise why would he be wortied about it passing in lame-duck. A bit of hyperbole? Or I’m just tired.
