On Civil Rights: History of pro-gay rights with established credibility

"My being a lesbian or her being a lesbian I think has nothing to do with why we're running for office," Nixon told the scrum on her way out of an appearance. The 51-year-old has never held public office, but as an activist she has lobbied extensively for better education funding and advocated for gay rights. One gay-rights activist said Nixon had established her credibility as a thoughtful activist, but predicted that Cuomo would win "the lion's share" of the LGBT vote.
