FORMER FLORIDA GOVERNOR CHARLIE CRIST IS GAY AND DNK — AND OTHER UNFOUND ALLEGATNS

Charlie Crist’s flip flop on gay marriage. In May 2013, Crist me out support of gay marriage on Facebook. That was a reversal om 2008 when he voted for a state nstutnal ban on gay marriage.

Gay marriage advot view both civil unns and domtic partnerships as ferr to marriage.

The nstutnal amendment the works 2005 banned gay marriage but also clud a phrase terpreted by some gay rights advot and lawyers to ban civil unns, too -- that "no other legal unn that is treated as marriage or the substantial equivalent thereof shall be valid or regnized. Watermark, a Central Florida gay and lbian publitn, endorsed Crist the homtretch of the Republin primary cg his support for civil unns.

CHARLIE CRIST ACCED OF GAY AFFAIRS, DNKEN RAMPAG

What they generally said was would pend on how closely such a civil unns law rembled marriage (though advot of gay rights told they qutned the pot of draftg a civil unns law that would be so weak as to pass that tt). Crist told CNN that he had supported a ban on gay marriage but add (once aga) that he's a "live-and-let-live kd of guy. "It simply isn’t fair to say that someone who vot on a nstutnal amendment that has both provisns that he supported (prohibn on gay marriage) and provisns that he opposed (prohibns on civil unns) necsarily is support of both or agast both, " Geller rpond.

When asked about his changg stance on gay marriage, Crist said, "I always supported civil unns. In fact a gay publitn endorsed him the Republin primary 2006 bee of his stance on civil unns. But Crist sacrified his support for civil unns by votg for an anti-gay-marriage amendment that uld have also banned civil unns.
