Well, Instinct Magazine is reporting — citing the Twitter feed of the Capital Tonight news program — that gay marriage proponents have the 32nd vote they need to break the 31-31 deadlock in the senate over the issue. In addition, the New York Civil Liberties Union claims, also via Twitter, that pro-marriage forces “have more than enough votes” to carry the measure.

But no vote has been scheduled as of now. If you support gay marriage in New York, now would be a good time to contact your senator.

it also seems that there might possibly be more republicans willing to vote for same sex marriage now that one has decided to be the 32nd vote.

The only way now that it will not pass is if republicans refuse to allow it to be voted on.
