PHOENIX – Arizona has been a disappointment to anti-gay-marriage activists since 2006, when the state became the first in the nation to reject a ballot measure banning same-sex marriage.
Those same opponents are hoping for redemption Tuesday, when Arizona voters again will decide whether they want the state's constitution to be amended to define marriage as a union between one man and one woman. "It actually helped us out, having it fail the first time, because it allowed us to raise more money," said state Sen. Ron Gould, a Republican and sponsor of this year's measure, which was put on the ballot by the Legislature.
