Tag: obama endorses gay marriage

President Barack Obama on Thursday (Oct. 25) endorsed the same-sex marriage referendum on the Washington state ballot and also formally backed a similar measure on the ballot in Maine.
The support from the president -- who in May came out in favor of gay marriage -- provided a boost for the campaign in favor of Washington's Referendum 74 just as a new poll showed that the race was getting tighter.

Citing his Christian faith, President Obama endorsed same-sex marriage in an interview with ABC news on Wednesday.
