Maine gay marriage supporters lead in funding
Supporters of Maine’s same-sex marriage law continued Friday to collect far more campaign contributions than their opponents in a referendum that’s being watched nationally.
NO on 1/Protect Maine Equality said in its campaign finance report to the state that it has raised $4 million in its campaign to keep Maine’s same-sex marriage law on the books. That compares to the $2.5 million raised by Stand for Marriage Maine, which forced the people’s veto vote through a petition drive.
