Poll: Majority of Coloradans back legal recognition for gay couples
Nearly 70 percent of Coloradans support some sort of legal recognition for gay couples, but more favor marriage over civil unions.
A Denver Post poll shows 36 support marriage while 32 percent favor civil unions. Another 27 percent oppose legal recognition of any sort, and 6 percent were unsure.
Voters 65 and older are the most likely to oppose legal recognition — 31 percent. But that same age group gave largest support to civil unions — 46 percent.
