Accessible from the California Secretary of State's web site.

Link to the specific text. But here's the entire text:

Section 7.5 Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in the California.

By the way, the docs on that page are draft copies and may change before election day.

I thought the wording WAS changed?

It was. Previously the text was:

"We don't want none of dem homos gettin' hitched in Caleefornyu."

No, the title (which is the discretion of the Secretary of State, so long as it is accurate) was changed after the state supreme court allowed same sex marriages.

The title now in place ("Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry") was listed as Limit on Marriage when the petitions were approved. A recent court ruling sided with the secretary of state.

I had a discussion with my cousin about voting no on it. She doens't see why she should bother as she's stratight and none of her gay friends are in serious relationships. So it "doesn't affect her".

I hope it turns out I'm adopted.

Thanks! Though I was informed that a ballot proposition isn't the same thing as public policy. I'm going to have to read a bit and email the teacher.

Woohoo! My mom dad and I are in a public service announcement on Proposition 8

My mom gave the best little chat so she's the one talking:
