Victory in NH

[furrbear]

The New Hampshire House narrowly approved its marriage equality bill today by a vote of 178-167, sending the bill to the desk of Gov. John Lynch, who has not said whether he will sign the bill.

Another big win for the good guys! Congrats to all who worked so hard!

If the governor signs, it makes New England a solid block.

[EDIT: OK ALREADY, except for less-than-two county-sized f**king Rhode Island. HAPPY?]

Woot! Let's hope the gov either signs it, or fails to veto it. :-)

Here's hoping Maine's example helps. ;)

I thought Rhode Island was considered part of New England?

If so, one more to go to seal it up.

The governor of Rhode Island has said he will NOT sign a marriage equality bill.

[gordreece.livejournal.com]

Then someone should set fire to him. While nailed to a cross.

[winstonthriller.livejournal.com]

No, no crosses. But ripping off his head, shitting down his throat, and then sewing his head back on would be acceptable.

[gordreece.livejournal.com]

You have a far cooler head than I.

LOL

Solid block? Almost, but not until Rhode Island comes on board.

Still, I'm a very happy puppy today with the news that Maine has come one board this morning. Spent a chunk of my childhood there.

Indeed...I was going to point out the SMALL *ahem* issue of Rhode Island too. But all the news today is good!

SAD TO SAY...

Its not a win, until the Governor signs it.... but, hope springs eternal

No, darlin', it makes five out of six.
Little Rhody has yet to weigh in.
