Jerry Brown - Meg Whitman debate: Gay marriage
The candidates were asked to rank the importance of Proposition 8 on a scale of one to 10.
Neither did.
Meg Whitman said Jerry Brown "needs to defend that lawsuit," to try to uphold the state's gay marriage ban.
Brown said "I'm following the precedent of a prior attorney general," and said he believes Proposition 8 violates the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Brown called Proposition 8 "so fundamentally wrong."
