California voted on an initiative that defined marriage in law. So, that means, it's up for grabs in the legislature.
In Oregon, we put it into the state constitution.
California's Prop 22 defining marriage between a man and a woman was a constitutional amendment.

I think they did it that way because of the lower signature requirements.

ahhh but the left wing loophold is that Civil Unions are allowed. So the homos simple create the idential to marraige civil unions under the "a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet."
I think it is an unconstitutional game since it does not pass the "duck test". The votes of some sexual behavior faction are more valuable than the votes of those who voted for 22. (equal protection)
