8 NOVEMBER b 2009 W W W JUSTOUT.COM NORTHWEST BRIEFS Bowman reported that church communi ties in Clark County played a large part in getting the message of fairness and equality out to residents. “The fair-minded and good-hearted people of Clark County deserve credit for helping Washington become the first state in the union to affirm the rights of state-registered domestic partnerships by popular vote,” said Bowman. Bowman also acknowledged that full marriage equality is only a matter of time for Washington State, thanks to a larger youth vote turnout. “As young voters become more active and opponents of gay marriage die out, marriage equality is clearly coming to Washington State,” he said. “All credit goes to fair-minded voters for their work to approve Referendum 71.” Forfurther information, visit www. approve7lvancouver.org and www. approvereferendum 71.org.
