I'm not surprised. When Alabama finally voted to repeal their anti-miscegenation clause in their constitution, in _2000_, 40 percent voted to keep it.
It's why I mock the people who get all snotty about how "the courts shouldn't interfere with the political process" in regards to gay marriage. If the deep South had their way, they'd still be arresting people for marrying, and proudly trumpeting how it was their "heritage".
