Sunday Focus: Marriage

     Alabama has the lowest percent age of people who support same-sex marriage.




     32% of Alabama residents approve...a tie with Mississippi for the lowest per cent in the country. At the top? New Hampshire. HERE's the study from the Public Religion Research Institute. 

     Meanwhile a probate judge in Elmore County is making an unusual argument...asking the Federal Government to save Alabama officials from having to issue those licenses:

"Born solely from a strained interpretation of the U.S. Constitution, the new same-sex marriage license is a child of the federal government, not the State of Alabama," (Probate Judge John) Enslen wrote in the petition.

Here are the details from AP and ABC TV.
