As Eden reported yesterday, despite spending over $5 million on right wing, anti-gay candidates, the so-called "National Organization For Marriage" had little success at the ballot box on Tuesday. NOM's dismal showing on Tuesday further underscores how out of touch NOM is with mainstream America.
Not only was NOM's support less than likely to lead to election, but for many candidates, NOM's support proved toxic. Despite NOM's best efforts to promote an anti-gay agenda, Tuesday's elections saw the greatest number of out, LGBT candidates elected nationally, ever.
In fact, the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund reported at least 106 out LGBT candidates endorsed by the group were elected.
