Reuters Poll: 56% Of Republican Voters Would Attend Same-Sex Wedding

Via Reuters:

A majority of U.S. Republicans would attend the same-sex wedding of a loved one, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Wednesday, highlighting the political risks for Republican presidential candidates who stake out positions against gay marriage. Though some Republican White House hopefuls have tried to insert nuance into their positions on gay marriage - something that polling shows most Americans back - their opposition is clear. Adamant opposition is popular with the party's conservative wing, whose support is critical in the presidential nominating process. The poll showed 56 percent of Republicans would attend the gay wedding of a loved one if invited. That compares with 80 percent of Democrats and 70 percent of independents, who said they would go. Overall, 68 percent of Americans would attend, the poll showed, while 19 percent would not and 13 percent were unsure. The poll's results suggests Republicans who stake out strong opposition to gay marriage could be on shaky political ground if their ultimate goal is to win the White House.
