Members KYTOP Posted November 5, 2010 Members Share Posted November 5, 2010 As a state that many associate with the Tea Party, it may come to a surprise to many that Kentucky's second largest city elected an openly gay man as mayor. Kentucky's largest city also has had a gay rights ordinance for several years. http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2010/11/02/Gay_Mayor_for_Lexington_Ky/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolerance might be expected more because it is a 'big city' of sorts, but not that big, and it is in Kentucky!! Suprising? Yes. A positive sign for the Kentucky and the country? Yes. Now we have to balance that with the deposing of the Iowa Supreme Court Justices. Progress happens in fits and starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiBottomBoy Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 It could be a fluke. When you can't read you sorta just press random buttons in the voting booth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
