FAU gay student group, Equality Florida hold town hall meeting on marriage vote

I moderated a town hall meeting Thursday night to discuss Florida's constitutional marriage amendment, which will be on the ballot in November.

The amendment would ban same-sex marriage, civil unions and the equivalent.

The town hall meeting was sponsored by Equality Florida and hosted by Lambda United Student Group at Florida Atlantic University.

Here are scenes from the event. Below, photos by Tazzy Vue Photography:
