Dear Minnesota, you have a chance to be the first state in the nation to beat the marriage police at their own game.

This should motivate everyone to get out and vote. LOL! Follow the rules, but register. Issues like this drive people to the polls.

Even though it looks like we Minnesotans will vote against the ban, it's still wrong to put people's civil rights up for a vote. I like the people who say, "No one voted on MY marriage." Exactly.

This is going to backfire on the Republicans in so many ways. It will be great fun to watch.

Bigotry will NOT win in Minnesota. Minnesotans know better than to enshrine discrimination into the constitution. Let freedom ring!

When the ban fails at the polls, our legislature should be required to repeal the state law banning gay marriage.

Once this fails, and it will, the political supporters of it will be voted out, because obviously you do not aptly represents Minnesotans.

Let Minnesota be the first state to change the tide! Constitutions are meant to ensure freedoms and protections for all, not restrict minorities by force of the majority. Vote no!
