I'm not surprised. The deep South is full of homophobes. Texas had a law banning homosexual acts in the privacy of one's home before it was struck down by the Supreme Court in 2003. I don't think that will ever be overturned unless a court strikes it down, which is doubtful since marriage is regulated by the states. The voter turnout was massive and 61% voted in favor of it. To get 12% of the voters to change their minds is no easy task. Especially when homophobia is so deeply ingrained in the society over there.
