GAY MARRIAGE LEGAL IN IOWA!!!!!\

...

"The court reaffirmed that a statute inconsistent with the Iowa constitution must be declared void even though it may be supported by strong and deep-seated traditional beliefs and popular opinion," said a summary of the ruling issued by the court.

...

The state Supreme Court's ruling upheld an August 2007 decision by Polk County District Court Judge Robert Hanson, who found that a state law allowing marriage only between a man and a woman violates the constitutional rights of equal protection.

This was a court case in Iowa, not a vote. And Iowa's referendum's are much stricter than California's so its unlikely that this will get on the ballot.
