Shame on you, NC

I am ashamed of my state over this.

With a 23-point lead after more than 1.3 million votes have been counted, the AP projects the marriage amendment will pass.

As of 9:15 p.m., Amendment 1 had 61 percent of the vote for it and 39 percent of the vote against it, according to the Board of Elections website.

The amendment constitutionally makes marriage between a man and a woman the only acceptable form of marriage.

As of 9:15 p.m., 61 counties have partially reported, while 15 counties have completely reported.
