A new poll shows that a majority of Colorado voters support domestic partnerships for gays but that a majority also support limiting marriage to heterosexual couples. Of those polled, 58% said they would vote for a domestic-partnership measure on the November ballot, while 53% said they would vote for another ballot measure defining marriage as a union between a man and woman, Denver's CBS4 News and The Rocky Mountain News report. The poll, conducted throughout the state September 10-12 by Public Opinion Strategies, also showed that Denver residents were more likely to support domestic partnerships and that residents of Colorado Springs, known as a hotbed of religious-right activism, were less likely to support them. Eight in 10 voters said they personally know someone who is gay or lesbian. (The Advocate)
