Does it matter though? The Bible Base was rattled and they responded. There was no voter fraud, that is what the Democracy here wanted. The moderate Left in CA is notoriously lazy, so they couldn't be bothered to have another vote in following elections to overturn it. It is what the people who voted that time around in this state wanted.
ftfy.
The anti-gay vote was much more mobilized than the other side, something that the GOP found across many states and exploited.
It didn't really reflect what the California people wanted, it just wasn't as important to the pro-gay voters (potential) as it was to the anti-gay voters.
As with everything else related to elections, but final piece is the most significant.....getting larger numbers of voters on your side out to vote than the other side.
It was the same thing with Trump...the American people didn't necessarily want him more, it's just that more of the people who were going to vote for him voted, for a variety of reasons.
