Vermont Governor Vetoes Gay Marriage Bill, Setting Way For Override Vote

MONTPELIER, VT - APRIL 07: Vermont House Speaker Shap Smith pauses before beginning the days session at Vermont's State House April 7, 2009 in Montpelier, Vermont. Hundreds gathered at the State House as the Vermont House and Senate voted to override yesterday's veto, by Governor Jim Douglas, of the state's new Civil Marriage Law. The passage of the override will make Vermont the first state to enact a same sex civil marriage law through legislation, and not a court order. (Photo by Jordan Silverman/Getty Images)
