MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) -- Vermont has become the fourth state to legalize gay marriage -- and the first to do so with a legislature's vote.

The Legislature voted Tuesday to override Gov. Jim Douglas' veto of a bill allowing gays and lesbians to marry. The vote was 23-5 to override in the state Senate and 100-49 to override in the House. Under Vermont law, two-thirds of each chamber had to vote for override.

"POLL
The D.C. city council has voted unanimously to recognize gay marriages performed in other states -- including Vermont and Iowa, which recently legalized the status. What recognition do you think the District should give same-sex relationships? "
Currently the last option:"The city should itself legalize gay marriage.' is at 89%!(Yes, I know, not rocket science. But MAGIC.)
