Proposition 102: Useless, Unconstitutional

Arizona Proposition 102 aims to define marriage as "one man and one woman" in the Arizona Constitution, despite the fact that the Arizona Constitution already bans same-sex marriage (Arizona Revised Statute 25-101(C): "Marriage between persons of the same sex is void and prohibited."). A very similar bill, Proposition 107, was already rejected by Arizona voters two years ago. The Arizona Legislature also voted "no" on this bill twice, according to Paula Aboud of the Tucson Citizen. This bill holds no actual relevance to upholding the law - it's merely an exercise of religiousity at the polls.
