Quote:
Australians have voiced their opinion on same-sex marriage — and they are overwhelmingly in favor of it.

According to the results of a historic national postal survey announced by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Tuesday, 61.6 percent of Australian voters said yes, same-sex marriage should be legalized. A majority in every single state and territory voted in favor of marriage equality, with a turnout of 79.5 percent of eligible voters nationwide.

The results now go to the government, which opted to survey the population before the parliament took up its own vote on the issue.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, who voted yes, has already pledged to follow through with the vote’s results. “We must respect the voice of the people. We asked them for their opinion and they have given it to us. It is unequivocal. It is overwhelming,” he said at a press conference.

I wasn't surprised at all. I was guessing it would be in the 60 to 70percent range. Hardly overwhelmingly and I have heard that word used a number of times today in the media :smirk:

Oh, and it was a survey of public opinion. The government has to cross a few T's and dot a number of I's and politics being politics, it might take months to make it legal if they ever get around to it...

It isn't even about respecting the voice of the people. This should be allowed regardless if the people agree with it or not.
