Watch the video below to hear David (and Huffington Post writer Jose Antonio Vargas) discuss the matter with CNN correspondent Reggie Aqui:


While I don’t always agree with David on all matters, there is no denying that he is absolutely well-spoken and quite knowledgeable on these matters. GLBT issues are at the forefront of water-cooler discussions right now and it is my hope that all of this attention will work towards advancing equal rights for all citizens in this country. It cannot always happen overnight but a hearty and educated on-going discussion of the issues can go a long way to affecting change. I’m glad that CNN had the foresight to invite David to speak on this matter today because they’d be hard-pressed to find someone to better speak on these issues. He did a great job, didn’t he?

If you cannot be near a TV this evening/night, these widgets will provide the pertinent results information as they become available. I will be Twittering thruout the day, evening, night … which will hopefully be a good one for my candidate ;)



Additionally, I will be uploading all of the I Voted photos that folks have been sending in to me thruout the day — like this adorable photo of little Daniel wearing his mother’s sticker on his cheek:
