"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

These are some of the words which America was founded based on. All men are created equal. When you vote in favor of keeping a section of people to be treated unequally based on their sexual orientation that is closed minded and hateful. It is publicly announcing that you are in favor of certain people being discriminated against and being treated as though they are worth less than you because of how they define their sexual orientation.

It is WRONG. EQUALITY is the FUTURE.

Please rethink your decision to lessen the quality of life for your fellow North Dakota residents whose sexual orientation you may not agree with. You don't need to agree with everyone's sexual orientation but you do need to protect those you represent. All of them.
