Sam Arora (Maryland) votes NO for equality after running on a campaign for it.

We got the one vote we needed. Initial reports are that Sam Arora, who ran on a marriage equality platform as a progressive Netroots-friendly candidate, voted against us. More on that below (including his contact info - please visit his Facebook page and Twitter account - again the info is below).

The bill had previously passed the state Senate, and no votes are expected to change there, so this is all but assured to go the Democratic governor, who has said he'll sign it.

The religious right has already said they're going to try to put the issue on the November ballot.

UPDATE: It's confirmed. Sam Arora, after reportedly taking calls from the Governor, Bill Clinton and Terry McAuliffe, still voted against us. All this after he run on a platform including marriage equality.
