Attitudes towards same sex marriage will get a political test in NYC over the next year as likely mayoral candidate and current City Council President Christine Quinn today wed her longtime partner Kim Catullo, a Jersey girl turned Manhattan lawyer.
The newlyweds were walked down the aisle by their father's, both WWII vets in their 80s. Both women lost their mothers at a young age.
Former Court of Appeals Chief Justice Judith Kaye performed the ceremony with many political figures in attendance.
A year after the state ok'd SSM and only days after the President professed his support, Speaker Quinn becomes a key test of attitudes towards the matter as she is expected to seek the mayor's job next year.
