	Interesting about the states that overturned the law, Cal. and Maine. A good many people getting more conservative.

	You mean getting more homophobic.

	@joe: I'm from California and, yes, many are conservative, but i think the ban passed because of an extremely well-funded and often misleading campaign. Elmo, I liked the addition of those two states. Quiz is short (sadly) but interesting how high the % guessed right is.

	I would have thought Florida and New York would have legalized same-sex marriage by now.

	These are the only states I would consider living in, purely on a point of principle.

	There's actually 5 bonus answers. California and Maine, and then 3 other states that have partnerships identical to marriage but not called marriage.

	Technically, same-sex marriages will not be "legally performed" in New Hampshire until January 1, 2010.

	Only 5? Darn, glad I do not live in the USA.

	Thankfully it's time for an update: DC can be added to the list proper. New York, Maryland and Rhode Island now recognize foreign and out of state same-sex marriages and New Jersey preforms unions with identical rights and protections. Nevada, Washington, Oregon and Cali. offer most rights and protections. Maine, Colorado, Hawaii and Wisconsin offer limited but recognized rights like domestic partnerships. Unfortunately there are 18 states banning any same-sex marriage/partnership rights, 13 and Puerto Rico banning marriage and New Mexico with nothing to say about it.
