December will be a big month in New Jersey, but not just because of the holidays. Legislators are going to try to override Governor Chris Christie's veto of a law that would authorize same-sex marriage, the Associated Press reports. The governor suggested that it should be put on the ballot for voters to decide. Republican leaders said members of the party can vote on the veto-override legislation as they see fit, the AP also reports. Assembly Member Declan O’Scanlon, who will vote in favor of the override said, “The narrative that the governor strong-arms Republicans in the Legislature is false."
