Governor Baldacci Honored For Supporting Same Sex Marriage

Despite voters overturning Maines same sex marriage law, the man who signed it, Governor John Baldacci, was honored Saturday for doing just that.

In Boston, Baldacci was awarded for his support of gay marriage by the Human Rights Campaign. And even though Maine voters overturned the law, Baldacci says he's proud of the effort supporters put behind it. Baldacci received the human rights commission marriage equality award for his support on the issue.
