DescriptionThe state Senate's biggest advocate for gay marriage boasted Monday he has the votes to make it legal in New York.

Sen. Thomas Duane (D-Manhattan) said he's received assurances of support from more than the 32 senators needed to approve the bill.

"I have the votes," said Duane, who predicted the Senate would vote on the matter before the end of its session this month.

Duane declined to say which senators had agreed to support the bill, but said the list included some Republicans.
