RHODE ISLAND: Frank Caprio With Slight Lead Over Former Sen. Lincoln Chafee
Rhode Island state Treasurer Frank Caprio is maintaining a slight lead over former Sen. Lincoln Chafee, who was the only GOP Senator to support gay marriage before being defeated by Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in 2006. Chafee has since left the GOP to run as an independent. Both Chafee and Caprio have signed a pledge to approve same-sex marriage should they become governor.
