Mar. 10, 2004 – Washington Post/ABC Poll Shows Support for Same-Sex Marriage Grows

“About half the country — 51 percent — favors allowing gay couples to form civil unions with the same basic legal rights as married couples, up 6 percentage points in less than a month. A slightly larger majority also rejected amending the U.S. Constitution to ban same-sex marriages in favor of allowing states to make their own laws, an increase of 8 percentage points in recent weeks.”
