Source: Seattle Times
Gov. Chris Gregoire is expected to announce her support for gay marriage at a news conference Wednesday morning, according to sources close to the discussions.
The governor's office won't comment except to say there will be an 11 a.m. news conference on Wednesday to discuss "marriage equality."
... Gregoire has supported giving gay and lesbian partners the same rights that married couples have today, but has never publicly endorsed same-sex marriage.
