I am shocked that CO went the same route, very shocked as this state has struck me as being very socially liberal despite it's Christian population, hunting and fishing population and rural areas.
My neighbor showed up at my Kentucky Derby party to announce her candidacy for state senate on Saturday. Despite my more conservative leanings most of my friends are younger couples, the majority of which work in the education system. Her showing up and letting everyone know she was running (after a good three hour head start on drinking) then sharing her views, including being "staunchly against the SIN of gay marriage" raised quite a few hackles amongst my guests and I had to ask her to leave as a Derby/Cinco party is no place for debate. Once again I am forced to consider the democratic candidate based on the Rep. being a religious nut.
