The anti-equality forces have seen a boost in support for Prop 8, the same sex marriage ban on the ballot.
In an urgent announcement, the NO on Prop 8 campaign, Equality for All, today convened a special briefing of the LGBT press around the country. The campaign released new polling data that shows the opponents of Proposition 8 losing ground as proponents continue to flood the airwaves with misleading television ads. Proposition 8 is the November ballot initiative that eliminates the right of same-sex couples to marry in California.
"Our most recent polling data shows us four points behind," said Geoff Kors, a member of the NO on Prop 8 Executive Committee. "And unless we raise significant new dollars, we will not be able to compete with the proponents on television." The latest poll from Lake Research shows the race 47% Yes and 43% No.
