Will Iowans uphold ruling?

As in California, there will of course be an effort to amend the state constitution to prohibit gay couples' marriages. In Iowa, however, the hurdle to amending the constitution is fairly high: it will have to be approved by two consecutive sessions of the state legislature and then by a majority of the voters. Most likely, this means that Iowans won't vote on the issue until 2012. [Link]
