Everybody say your prayers tonite, this is one of the most important SCOTUS decisions in 100 years. None of us will live to see another landmark decision like this one.

72:8 OUR side (90%:10%)

Not sure how SIG got a higher count, unless the poll closed. Hmmmmm.... A Washington poll that's NOT going their way so the figures get jockey'd.
