New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie abandoned the state’s legal challenge to same-sex marriage on Monday, hours after gay couples began tying the knot in the wake of a court ruling.Read more...
Christie said that while he disagreed with the court’s decision, it “left no ambiguity,” making New Jersey the 14th state in the nation to legalize same-sex marriage.
Couples began taking advantage of the new law as soon as they could. Senator-elect Cory Booker officiated at seven weddings in the rotunda at Newark City Hall.
“It is officially past midnight, marriage is now equal in New Jersey,” Booker said to applause and cheers.
Booker, who had declined to officiate at weddings as mayor of New Jersey until same-sex couples could be included, pronounced the occasion “one of the most magical moments” of his life.
Mayors in cities and towns including Newark, Jersey City, Red Bank, Asbury Park and Lambertville opened their city halls late Sunday to marry couples as soon as the state’s 72-hour waiting period for licenses was over.
When Booker asked if anyone objected to the marriage of the night’s first couple — retired advertising executive Joseph Panessidi and LGBTQ educator Orville Bell — a protester yelled that the marriages were “unlawful in the eyes of God and Jesus Christ,” The Associated Press reported.
