It's definitely not time to break out the champagne, but there's hope that the state will turn away a bigoted amendment. It needs to pass a 60% threshhold, and the numbers are within the margin of error.

    The Mason-Dixon poll, taken for The Orlando Sentinel, shows that 57 percent of voters support the amendment while 36 perecent said they intend to vote against it.  Florida's constitution requires a 60 percent majority to amend the document.
