Actually, I think I've always read this part of the Constitution wrong. It seems to say that the ''electors'' cannot vote for both a president and VP from ''their'' state. If Bush ran with Rubio as VP, the Florida electors would not be able to vote for that ticket. But that would only be a problem if Bush had won fewer that 299 electoral votes. If he won more, the Florida electors could vote for someone else as VP and Rubio would still have a majority. Of course they'd never chance that. [[User:IsabellW|IsabellW]] 16:01, 21 April 2015 (EDT)

"The two-term Republican governor of Wisconsin is strongly opposed to same-sex marriage -- and recently called for a constitutional amendment to reverse the Supreme Court’s decision ruling same sex unions legal in all 50 states," according to [http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/scott-walker-opposes-gay-marriage-supports-sex-couple/story?id=32404379 ABC News]. The linked article is a detailed recent profile and interview. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] 14:57, 26 July 2015 (EDT)
