(NECN: Anya Huneke, Burlington, Mass.) - The repeal of same sex marriage in Maine was felt by advocates on both sides of the issue in Vermont. A blow to supporters who had invested a lot of time and money into protecting Maine's gay marriage law. A boost to opponents who feel they have a stronger case now for a popular vote in Vermont.
It was an outcome for which Beth Robinson had prepared herself. But it stung just the same.
