I can't get the MA flag image to show up. Either it is full sized or not at all. Can anyone help me? Postcard Cathy 00:27, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Red X and Green Check npov?
I really hate to nitpick but the use of green checks and red xs seems to me that it defies neutral point of view. Seems to make voting yes on amendments banning same sex marriage be a positive thing. In my eyes it's a negative thing because same sex marriage does nothing to opposite sex marriage. Why must people take marriage -- which a subject of love -- and turn it into a subject of hate? I'd like to see red checks and green Xs, but that's my point of view. In the interest of neutralness, shouldn't we change it to just the words yes and no? That way neither side would feel slanted against -- nevermind the fact that this entire subject is slanted in the first place because of the two sides, the hate is only in one direction and completely unfounded in anything other than religion which isn't even supposed to affect government policies in the first place. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.254.163.104 (talk) 13:29, 2 January 2007 (UTC).
- I hardly think the red x/green check is a POV issue. The notion of the color green being associated with "yes" and red with "no" is universal enough to be understood without inferring any bias. It's not "green is good, red is bad", it's just "green is yes, red is no". Anyone who reads anything more into it than that is being hypersensitive. Arkyan 09:03, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] California
They voted again on SSM. That should probably get added. 140.90.131.108 16:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
