What has not been noted thus far -- because the vote was not public beyond a mention that two people voted no -- is that only a bare majority of the board's seven members at the time voted for the endorsement. What's more, half of the board's gay or lesbian members voted against endorsing Romney.
Of the seven GOProud board members, only four supported the endorsement. Only two gay or lesbian board members voted in favor: LaSalvia and Bruce Carroll.
GOProud's Romney Endorsement Had Only A Bare Majority of the Board -- And Little Gay Support - Poliglot
What they are saying is among the "gay" board members, 2 voted for Romney and 2 voted against him. So how did he win the support of a "gay" organization? Seems two of the board members are straight. They support Romney. A third straight member didn't vote.
Why would gay people vote for Romney?
