The Orange County Democratic Party voted on Jan. 23 to officially oppose Amendment 1, which would define marriage as between a man and a woman and would add a ban of same-sex marriage to the state constitution.
The amendment will appear on the May 8 primary ballot.
In addition to voting against the amendment, the Orange County Democratic Party voted to become a member of the Coalition to Protect N.C. Families and to work actively against Amendment 1.
