Though Obama won the election last night, promising change/hope for what I believe is the better, many anti-gay propositions passed to restrict or outright ban the rights of homosexuals in America.

The jubilation I felt last night has been severely tempered by this news.

Hopefully a Democratic majority at all levels of government can change this for the better.

P.S. Just for the record, I didn't vote. Not out of apathy (clearly), but due to the fact that my absentee ballot did not arrive until this morning. As these are void after the closing of the polls in the issuing state (which is New York for me, King's county), it is useless to vote now. Instead I'll be showing it to my friends here in Lancaster before framing it for posterity.
