| Description | One of California's most prominent Republicans has made a big shift on the issue of gay marriage.
Meg Whitman, who was the Republican nominee for governor in 2010, was one of at least 75 notable Republicans who signed a Supreme Court brief that states that gay marriage is a constitutional right.
Whitman's newfound support for gay marriage is significant, as she was a supporter of California's Proposition 8 when she ran for governor. The high court will consider the constitutionality of Proposition 8 this term, hearing arguments at the end of March. Proposition 8, passed by California voters in 2008, states that marriage is between a man and a woman. |
