Fundraising Edge for No On 1


No On 1/Protect Maine Equality, the group seeking to defeat Maine's anti-gay Question 1, are enjoying a nearly two-to-one fundraising advantage over Question 1's supporters, according to the Associated Press. No on 1 has raised $4 million in its campaign to affirm Maine's same-sex marriage law, compared to the $2.5 million raised by Stand for Marriage Maine, which placed the "people's veto" vote on the ballot through a petition drive.

Despite their edge in fundraising, No On 1 is taking nothing for granted, as close polling numbers and possibly low turnout make the outcome of this vote hard to predict. Show your solidarity with No On 1/Protect Maine Equality. Travel to the state or make calls from home, and help defeat Question 1.
