THE TIDE TURNING?

Public support for amending Arizona’s state constitution to ban gay couples from getting married or having any legal protections is waning:

The poll of 390 voters done last week found that 60 percent are likely to oppose the Protect Marriage Arizona initiative if it makes the November 2006 ballot. Only 33 percent said they would vote for it, and the other 7 percent were undecided.

Polls in California and Massachusetts are showing the same trend.
