Why was Utah high on the list of marriage equality targets?

What did the Mormon Church, headquartered in SLC, buy with the $20 million bucks they pumped into California's Proposition 8 campaign in 2008?

Scrutiny, for one thing! In just one article posted in The Stranger in November 2008, Dan Savage wrote:


The Mormon Church Jumps the Couch | Slog

I think the Mormon church, with Prop 8, has essentially jumped the couch. There are a lot of very angry, very creative people out there, not all gay, and many of these angry people have long memories and platforms that will allow them to wage asymmetrical cultural warfare against the Mormon church. No Mormon churches should be vandalized and no Mormons should be physically attacked—there should be no violence—but Mormon church had better brace itself for a long period of sustained scrutiny and ridicule.
