9. The main group working to defeat this amendment is Minnesotans United for All Families

The effort is bipartisan and, believe it or not, there are Republicans who are against this amendment. Overall Minnesotans United seems to have a pretty smart plan for the campaign against this amendment and part of their plan is not to make it too partisan.

While we do need to elect a DFL majority to the state legislature, I doubt very much that it will pass a Marriage Equality Amendment and, even if it did, I don't have a lot of hope that the citizens of Minnesota would vote for it. What we can hope for is that Gov. Dayton will get the chance to nominate judges to the state Supreme Court who will find the current marriage laws unconstitutional - that's how things got changed in Iowa.
