4/7 - State lawmakers voted to override Governor Jim Douglas' Monday veto of a bill allowing same-sex couples to marry.
The Senate passed the bill with enough support to garner the two-thirds majority needed to override the veto, 23-5. The House announced its 100-49 vote on Tuesday, which effectively legalizes same-sex marriage in Vermont.
