Actually, Minnesota failed to pass an amendment that would have banned samd-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage is not currently allowed in Minnesota, but anti-LGBT forces wanted to write it into the state constitution.
Also, two states legalized marijuana yesterday.
I honestly think that social issues got Obama reelected. The hardline stances that the GOP took on LGBT issues, immigration, and rape turned off many voters whom might otherwise agreed with the Republicans that Obama handled the economy poorly.
The saddest loss for me last night was not Mitt Romney's, but Scott Brown's. He was a friend of liberty who voted to repeals DADT and DOMA, and wanted immigration reform, but also voted to repeal Obamacare, and to keep taxes low. I didn't vote for Romney, while I worked hard to attempt to get Brown reelected.
Also, here's a statistic that interests me: 79% of Ron Paul supporters voted for Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson, 11.5% wrote-in Ron Paul's name, 5% voted for some other thrid party candidate, 3.5% voted for Romney, and 1% voted for Obama.
Finally, the Libertarian Party set records this election! They doubled their popular vote total from 2008, and broke their popular vote percentage record that was set in 1980 by Ed Clark!
P.S.
Maijuana legalization isn't a win for the Democrats, Livewire. The national Democratic Party opposes marijuana legalization. Both gubernatorial candidates opposed legalization when it was on the ballot here in California two years ago. The results in Washington and Colorado are Libertarian wins, not Democratic wins.
