As most of you in Florida probably know, there is an Amendment on the November ballot to amend our state constitution to ban same sex marriage. Many on the names on the petition to get the amendment on the ballot have come into question. Example, my Grandfather's name is on the petition, yet he did not sign it. We have a local news reporter who is interested in doing a story on this, but we need more "questionable" signatures.

Please take time go look over this list of signatures to see if any one you know may be suspect on this list. From what I have gathered, they may have "snagged" names of elderly people who have had a tendency to vote republican in the past. You can search the list by last name, or the street you live on. If you find someone you doubt signed the petition call them and ask them if they did. If they are willing to talk to a local news reporter please send me a PM and I will forward it to the reporter.

Thanks for you help!

Thanks for posting this. I checked and none of my family or friends were listed.
 
I've looked Orlando Mike. Some of my neighbors are there, but I'm not surprised by that. :(

No family or true friends though.
 

Wish I could help, but none of my family or friends have ever been listed as living in another state. Here's to hoping the "law' fails and it's allowed to pass to marry anyone you want.
 
My two brothers live in florida full time, and my parents own a vacation home here - none were on the petition.
 
I checked again.

The only name on it that I recognize is still the co-worker that I can't stand, and have no doubt that he signed it.

I'll keep spreading the word to check the list!

Good luck!
 
I wonder if the people who signed the petition actually knew what they were signing. I did not see anyone I know on the list.

If they only knew how hurtful they are by thinking this way. It's very sad.

ANYTHING I CAN DO MIKE?
 
If you have any friends or family in Florida forward the site to them!
 
I looked again too. None of my family! And I made sure that my uncle (who just passed away this year) was not on it, nor my other uncle who is...family!

Let us know if there is anything else we can do
 
Just looked. None of my friends/family is listed...

Sounds about right tho.....
 
None of my family is on the list, but a co-worker is. I'm going to talk to her about it since she is pretty open minded about most things although she does attend a non-denominational church that isn't so open minded at times. I wonder if she signed the petition or the church signed all the members up. It's been known to happen at other churches before.
 
I checked the family that I have and we're in the clear on my end at least.
 
I'm not shocked that they would do that, though. It's pretty sad how people are so determined to prove their point that they would lie. :(
 
WOW!! Several of my neighbors are listed. And 1 who is very friendly with my and my roommate and he knows.
