As Governor, Tom would implement certain measures such as:

Tom fully supports marriage equality and as governor, Tom will repeal the state’s unconstitutional gay marriage ban and put forth legislation to create marriage equality in the Commonwealth.

Today Tom Wolf won the Dem nomination for PA Governor and will be running against very very unpopular Tom Corbett. Corbett is still stuck in the 'one man-one woman' idea of marriage and would continue to deny equal rights to the LGBT people of Pennsylvania and he will have to decide whether or not to appeal a decision made today by a judge to repeal the hateful ban on marriage equality.

U.S. District Judge John E. Jones, III ruled that Pennsylvania’s law banning marriage equality is unconstitutional but as you know this could still be appealed. PA Attorney General Kathleen Kane has already gone on record stating she would NOT defend any laws that take away marriage equality from Pennsylvanians. But Gov Tom Corbett could appoint someone to handle the appeal for him and the closed-minded tea bagger aligned GOP that runs the state.

Of course there are two very important numbers that Corbett needs to remember:
#1 - Corbett's is around 30-35%. He isn't very popular in this state and all the polls have shown Corbett trailing any of the 4 democrats that ran in today's primary.
#2 - More than 50% of Pennsylvanians want marriage equality and that number is constantly on the rise.

So in the end I think Corbett knows that if he tries to appeal the judgement today on marriage equality that he can kiss any chance of re-election goodbye. But in the end I don't think he has a chance anyways.
