New poll: Support for marriage equality continues to grow in Nevada

From Public Policy Polling:

• 47% of Nevada voters think gay marriage should be legal to versus 42% who think it should be illegal. That’s up from a 45/43 spread in late March.

• Black voters now narrowly support marriage equality, 47/41, in the wake of President Obama’s announcement in May. PPP previously found that they opposed it 63/21.

• 80% of Nevada voters support some form of legal recognition for gay couples – either marriage or civil unions – to only 17% who are completely opposed.  Even among Republicans, 74% at least support civil unions.
