Campaign finance records show that, as of Dec 1, opponents of Proposition 8
had a slight lead in contributions in their fight for equality.
Opponents raised about $37.6 million, while supporters of the ban on gay marriage raised about
$35.8 million, surpassing $73 million on the measure — almost twice the total spent in 24 states where similar measures were placed on a ballot.
Less than $33 million was spent on campaigns to pass or defeat gay marriage bans in the 24 states in 2004, 2005 and 2006, according to the National Organization on Money in State
Politics.
