Record support for marriage equality in New York, poll finds

Legalizing marriage for same-sex couples is favored by a record 58% of registered New York voters, according to a poll by the nonpartisan Siena Research Institute. Marriage equality advocates say now is the time to attempt to pass a marriage equality bill, while support is high and Gov. Andrew Cuomo is popular.

Meanwhile, over 72% of Coloradans support for legal recognition of same-sex unions.
