Not enough signatures to get Proposition 8 repealed on the California ballot

What! This is hard to believe. The measure to repeal California's Proposition 8, the anti-gay marriage initiative has failed to qualify for the ballot.
They didn't get enough signatures. They needed 694,000.
Where were you people who voted against Proposition 8 in 2008??? More than 6 million people voted against the proposition, which was beaten by a 53% - 47% vote.
John Henning, who heads a group that sponsored the repeal effort, declined to say how many signatures had been gathered.
Was it just a diluted effort that didn't have enough volunteers behind it? Frankly, I'm shocked.
I can't believe Californians would allow the opportunity to repeal Proposition 8 to slip away.
