2012 Elections!

Tonight is a historic night for the LGBT community.  Because so much has happened, a list is required:

  1. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, became the first openly-lesbian person to be elected to the US Senate
  2. Patrick Maloney of New York became the first gay Congressman elected
  3. Maryland legalized same-sex marriage via popular vote
  4. Maine legalized same-sex marriage via popular vote 
If you were not following the elections, Barack Obama has also been re-elected.

Because of all of this, tomorrow's meeting will certainly be one full of optimism for the future, especially for the LGBT community. Be excited!!!
