Mfarhanonline Social Media News: As New York sits on the precipice of becoming the sixth state to pass gay marriage legislation, one lawmaker has taken to Twitter and Facebook to ask his constituents what to do. Greg Ball, a Republican state senator (pictured), turned to his 2,500-plus Twitter followers and 3,400 Facebook friends this weekend to ask: "Opening up the discussion! So, if you were me, how would you vote on gay marriage? Yes or no?" Ball's tweet came as the state senate appeared close to deadlocked on the issue. The bill, which has the strong support of Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo, passed the state assembly in a 80-63 vote. At presstime, the bill had the support of 29 Democrats and two Republicans in the 62-member Senate. But Politico reports that "it is seen as not likely that Republican leadership will allow the chamber to vote on the bill if only one more Republican votes yes, thus a scramble is on to secure at least two more GOP votes for the bill." The session is slated to end as early as midnight ET, though Cuomo could extend it. The report went on to say that Ball's Twitter followers were overwhelmingly in favor of passing the bill, but on Facebook, it was more like 50-50.
