Republican Minds Slowly Changing on Gay Marriage |
|
|
|
 Opposition to gay marriage is declining across the country. Among Republicans, is the same true? Yes; it's just a much slower progression. And Obama's announcement of his support for same-sex marriage may have pushed Republican support back down a bit.
Former vice president Dick Cheney's daughter married another woman Friday, with minimal backlash. Yet even with such high-profile exceptions, opposition to gay marriage among Republicans remains far higher than among other Americans.
In the latest Post polling, 61 percent of Republicans think gay marriage should be illegal, compared with 36 percent of independents and 25 percent of Democrats. Overall, 53 percent of Americans think gay marriage should be legal, according to the most recent Post polling, while only 39 percent think it should be illegal.
