Government has no say over whom consenting adults love

Neither candidate believes the federal government has a role in gay marriage. D'Annunzio said he could make both constitutional and religious arguments for the case. "I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. Anything else, you can call it what you want. That's fine with me," he said. "The federal government has no place in it," and should not be allowed to define it.

Haugh said no level of government--state or federal--should have a role in those matters. Marriage "is one of the most deeply personal decisions you're ever going to make, and to have government say we get to regulate who consenting adults can love and how they love them is unimaginable," he said.
