Do you have access to any kind of databases like Lexus Nexus or EBSCO host?

(You might get better results if you use the full word "proposition" rather than just "prop.") In the google news search, there is a set of date filters on the left, so you can find news articles from the dates that you want. also: http://www.noh8campaign.com/ How does your teacher feel about original sources? You might see if you can interview a couple who was married before prop 8 went into effect, or a couple that wants to get married but now can't. You could also contact and talk to local political organizers in your area. |

We commonly use JSTOR or Academic Search Complete. You should have access to this from your university library database site. Anyways, good luck with the assignment, and let us know how well you do! ![]() (Btw, are you a PoliSci major?)
