The Assembly has enough votes to override should they choose to go down on the wrong side of history.

The Senate voted to override the veto, so the House is next to hear the issue and vote.

I had it backward, but none the less....both the House and the Senate voted to override the veto, so public employees may now refuse to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples in North Carolina.

Boy am i confused!

It seems the House adjourned for the weekend WITHOUT voting, and will take the issue up on Monday.

Every day that we can delay someone's ability to discriminate against someone else is a good day!
