New Poll Indicates Support for King, Same-Sex Marriage in Maine - Maine Public Broadcasting Network

A new poll takes the temperature on how Mainers are feeling about the race for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Republican Olympia Snowe, same-sex marriage, and other issues after last week's primary...

The poll also asked voters whether they support same-sex marriage. Fifty-five percent of respondents supported, 36 percent opposed. That's a 19-point lead, and pollster Steve Koczela, [president of the MassINC Polling Group], says he thinks the referundum will likely pass in November, given other poll results.
