Maine GOP House Member Stacey Fitts is telling voters in a pro-marriage equality ad "I've always been a Republican. I voted against same-sex marriage in 2009. But I know some gay people. And I've talked with them. And with my family. Deciding who you marry is the most import decision you'll ever make. I don't believe the government should tell anybody who they can love or who they can marry."
