These is one strange bedding.
North Carolina State House Speaker Thom Tillis in an interview with local press:
“The defense of marriage is one that a number of folks in our base feel very strongly about,” Tillis said, noting the issue would definitely be brought up in a special fall session. “Generally speaking, it polls fairly high across the voter base. It's not a particularly partisan thing.”
He expects the measure, which can't be vetoed by the governor, to pass the House with the minimum 72 votes and go to voters in 2012.

I expect this amendment to pass quite easily in NC - the main hurdle will be to pass in the legislature. That said, we should take nothing for granted, especially considering that North Carolina is not known as the South's most conservative state. Even still, the vast majority of North Carolinians favor traditional marriage.
