In the first month since marriages for gay couples have been legal in Iowa, local county recorders and marriage planners said they've been very busy. Polk County alone issued 173 licenses, 74 on the first day. Johnson County issued 86 marriage licenses in the first 30 days and Pottawattamie County issued 80. Attorney General Tom Miller said his office has received no complaints from people about recorders who refused to issue licenses to same-sex couples. [link]
