Here is a good article about the black vote and Prop. 8:

Some exit polls are reporting that blacks voted up to 70% for Prop 8 . As I discussed earlier, the black vote is a small % of the voters in CA, but it is sad that people who are discriminated against themselves can support such a Prop. It is said to be a church thing, more blacks attend church by % than whites.
As an aside, my wife's supervisor in a mormon and said she contributed $3000 for Prop 8 . I'd like to tell her what a bigoted c*** she is, but we need the paycheck.
