breaking!

[rm]

Apparently the 32nd vote has been secured.

IF the thing comes to the floor and this is true it WILL pass.

But we are so down to the wire.


ETA:
- Further unconfirmed reports circulating at capitol in Albany say we have a surplus of votes.
- If vote comes it will be late tonight.
- Protesters on both sides currently breaking, expecting this to go into the evening hours or later.
- Phone-banking is happening in NYC, Albany, possibly other locations tonight between 5:30 - 9pm

OMG. Sending gay married vibes across the Atlantic. :)

Fingers and toes crossed! I remember how it felt when marriage equality was finally passed into law here in MA finally, and my best wishes are with NY's people today.

I'm so glad you keep posting about this, I'm in Europe and can't find news anywhere. I may be far away, but with everyone over there in spirit.

Oh, I said a little silent, "please, please, please" right here at my desk. SO CLOSE, SO CLOSE. DO THE RIGHT THING, PEOPLE!

Ughhhhh I am so nervous for you guys. Happy thoughts and prayers and optimism (and hell, I'll even throw in some klainebows for good measure) that it goes to vote... It will be RIDICULOUS if it doesn't though, because that's totally interfering w/ the democratic process on purpose, and isn't that illegal? (if it's not, it should be.) I feel like it's not playing fair if you're keeping something from going to a vote just because you know it won't end like you want it to...

Please, new York ... Help restore just a little bit of my faith in humanity.....

Going to the Capitol as soon as another friend shows up to join the group. It's a little group. We have no signs. But... we're going. We'll be there.

If I wasn't in Minnesota I'd be driving to Albany right now.
