Washington: Marriage equality referendum polling at 56%

A new SurveyUSA poll shows support for Referendum 74, the ballot referendum on Washington’s marriage equality law, is surging with 56 percent approval and only 38 percent rejection.

Public Policy Polling found in June that 51 percent were prepared to vote for the measure — the first time that number crossed the 50 percent threshold.

The campaign supporting Referendum 74 has received immense corporate support, out-fundraising opponents 20-to-1, and the resulting messaging strategy seems to be working.
