http://washblade.com/thelatest/thelatest.cfm?blog_id=19121A citizen's initiative campaign to repeal Maine's gay rights law and seeking roadblocks to gay marriages is being abandoned.
The Christian Civic League of Maine's Michael Heath said the evangelical group that led the push is pulling the plug.
Heath said the group collected only a third of the number of voters' signatures it wanted during the June 10th primaries and failed to draw the volunteer support it had hoped for.
