Right now, my wife (will she be my legal spouse now that Prop 8 has passed?) is huddled under the covers. "I need time to wallow" she told me.
Yesterday, she stood for eight hours in front of a school serving as a polling place in Menlo Park, CA, a single volunteer holding a "vote no on Prop 8" sign. School security called the police and tried to get her to leave the premises, despite the fact she was maintaining the 100-feet distance required by law. She called No-On-Prop-8 lawyers, who had to negotiate with principals and the superintendent across the county to clarify that she indeed had the right to be there. She is tired and sad.
