For the first time in the Minnesota history, all the DFL candidates for governor support full marriage right for same-sex couples. As Eric Black at Minnpost notes, no Republican candidates support same-sex marriage. Steve Kelley, who prominently featured support for same-sex marriage when he announced his campaign had this to say:

“I think it’s fair to say that I’ve moved,” Kelley told Black yesterday. “In 2006, I would’ve said civil unions, yes. Marriage, no. But I have become more comfortable saying, ‘Let’s just call it what it is — marriage.’ It will be a responsibility of the governor to have a conversation with Minnesotans and get them comfortable with that.”
