Luken to Support Repeal of Article XII

The Enquirer is reporting that in today's State of the City Address Mayor Charlie Luken will urge voters to repeal Article XII of the city charter which forbids any laws providing homosexual rights. How much support will the rest of council give it? How many bigots are left in the city to oppose this? The Citizens to Restore Fairness are reportedly set to start their campaign to get the issue repealed.

It will be interesting to see who opposes the measure. I will assume the usual suspects will be out there. 11 years later, has anti-homosexual beliefs changed enough for this to pass? I hope it has.

UPDATE: The Cincinnati Post has more.
