As we reported last week, Californians will get to vote in 2024 on whether to repeal Proposition 8, the state’s dormant ban on same-sex marriage, once and for all. A new poll shows the repeal is likely to pass in a landslide, and LGBTQ leaders hope it will, to send a message to the rest of the country.

15 years ago, Californians narrowly approved Proposition 8, amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. It was later found unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court, legalizing gay marriage across the country. But that provision remains in the California Constitution, a kind of legal zombie line in the law, which means if this Supreme Court or a future one were to reverse its earlier ruling, same-sex marriage would again be outlawed in California. So the state legislature has put a measure on next year’s ballot, to repeal Prop 8 and remove it from the Constitution.
