OAKLAND TONIGHT -- Protest at the Mormon Church
This just hit the Chron -- no mention of the time:

A group of protesters plans to rally in front of the headquarters of the Mormon church over the faith's support for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage in California.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints encouraged its members to work to pass Proposition 8 by volunteering their time and money for the campaign. California voters approved the measure Tuesday.

The Friday evening protest comes a day after people demonstrated outside a Mormon temple in Los Angeles. About 1,000 gay-marriage supporters waved signs and brought afternoon traffic to a halt.

2. A post-election rally to express frustration
I have not been following this story. I don't know what could have been done to have prevented this issue from getting on the ballot. Now it will be hard to undo. good luck
