Would he go? Kasich on same-sex weddings
In recent days, many candidates and potential candidates for the republican presidential nomination have been asked if they would attend a same-sex wedding. (All of the announced GOP contenders are against same-sex marriage, but would they attend a ceremony?) CNN posed the question to Ohio Governor John Kasich on Sunday. For the record, Kasich says that he is presently waiting on a signal from God before he announces a decision on whether or not to run for president. But as for a same-sex wedding, Ohio’s governor says that he was recently invited to one. Is he going?
“I went home and I said to my wife, ‘my friend’s getting married. What do you think? You wanna go?’ She goes, ‘Oh, I’m absolutely going.’ I called him today and said, ‘Hey, just let me know what time it is.’ My friend knows how I feel about the issue, but I’m not here to have a war with him. I care about my friend, and so it’s pretty simple for me.”
As for others recently asked the question:
Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum says that he would not attend.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz avoided answering the question.
Florida Senator Marco Rubio says that he would attend a same-sex wedding.
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker says that he recently attended a same-sex wedding reception. (jj)
