I told my husband last night, when they were still counting, if it is rejected you know they'll keep on and keep on until they (supporters) get their way. Some judge will throw out some military ballots or some from the conservative districts.

Edit to add: Sorry, I don't mean to offend anyone, I'm just sick of all the temper tantrums. It just gets old after awhile. It seems that some people just have to have their way no matter what they have to do or if it's fair. The "Me" generation.

Just like how in baseball "tie goes to the runner", it's a general rule of thumb that in politics, tie goes to the liberal. Any time there is a close race, in which a recount is involved, they always give it to the democrat. In this case if there is a recount, they will most certainly declare the measure was approved.

As usual, the far-left leaning King County is going to take the rest of us down. Boy, am I tired of that.

You know, after going through this last year in CA. I must admit, I still cannot comprehend how we ever got to a place in time-- that people have to vote to keep what is normal, real, right, legal and having existed since God ordained it.

Boy, after the Rapture, I can only imagine, people will be going to the polls to vote if first degree murder can be legal....because everyone is committing it anyway....

Ban prayer from schools= ok
Abortion= ok
Homosexual partners and marriages= ok
Cold blooded murder = pending

Do y'all see the pattern?

This reminds me of that 2000 election. If the Supreme court had not gotten involved, there would have probably been recount after recount until Gore was declared the winner. It could have been 10 recounts with Bush still ahead, but on the 11th, Gore would be ahead by 1 vote, so immediately stop the recount and give it to Gore.

Let me tempt you out to discuss why you voted as you did.

Hetero Marriage offers the next generation to society.
Gay marriage offers nothing to society.

and of course here is what the Word of God has to say about the gay agenda:

Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
The Word is clear. Unrepentant (practicing) homosexuals who die in their sin, GO TO HELL. They can go to church, they can call themselves a Christian...but if they are practicing homosexuals when they die--they will spend eternity in Hell.

This passage lists a number of sins that offer the same consequences for unrepentance. An unrepentant thief goes straight to hell as well.

BUT, no other sin listed in that passage has a number of followers out to forcibly legalize their sin-calling sin a civil right.

When Jesus stopped the stoning of the adulteress, He told her to. "Go and sin no more." Repentance doesn't mean perfection, or a lack of struggle...The sin must stop! If a gay or lesbian isn't even attempting to stop the sin-They will burn: end of story.

The Bible is not a politically correct document. God doesn’t care about the opinions of kings or pop culture. The Bible is God’s divine revelation to man. A person does not get to pick and chose which of God’s Words he wants to believe. It’s all or nothing. Being a fundamentalist is believing that God meant what He said.

The bottom line is this: Jesus can transform you into a new being. If He can take a drunkard from this list and give that person the strength to throw off the chains of addiction, so God can transform the homosexual. It’s not by your strength, but by His.

Washington state's Referendum 71, which expands rights for gay and lesbian couples, has passed with around 52 percent.
