CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — On Nov. 3, Nevada will be the first state to vote whether to remove a defunct constitutional ban on same-sex marriage since the U.S. Supreme Court legalized it in 2015.
Proponents say the uncertainty that's followed the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has injected new urgency into their campaign.
They used to talk to voters about the need to illustrate Nevada's embrace of inclusivity. Now, they're discussing the need to safeguard same-sex marriage at the state level.
Opponents of same-sex marriage agree the pall of uncertainty surrounding the U.S. Supreme Court has cast an unforeseen dimension on the ballot measure fight.
