Description
The Rev. Cary K. Gordon of Cornerstone World Outreach Church in Sioux City, Iowa, is furious that the Iowa Supreme Court voted unanimously in 2009 to strike down the state's ban on same-sex marriage. So Gordon came up with a plan: In Iowa, justices on the seven-member high court must take part in retention elections every eight years. Three justices appeared on the ballot this month, and the Pentecostal pastor in September began urging clergy across the state to use their pulpits to demand that their congregations vote against the judicial candidates.
