http://www.bilerico.com/2008/10/prop_8_updates_new_poll_blackmail_and_mo.phpA new PPIC poll has Proposition 8 losing at 44-52. 538 rates the proposition a toss-up. It's a good sign that support for the measure, on no survey so far, has been above 50%. Undecideds tend to vote no on referendums in the end because they have a bias to the status quo.
Meanwhile, the Yes campaign has decided to blackmail small business owners:
ProtectMarriage.com, the umbrella group behind a ballot initiative that would overturn the California Supreme Court decision that legalized gay marriage, sent a certified letter this week asking companies to withdraw their support of Equality California, a nonprofit organization that is helping lead the campaign against Proposition 8.
