In November Colorado voters could face up to 18 ballot initiatives, including four on marriage equality. But in today's Denver Post Fred Brown expects that most won't make it onto the ballot. Just two surrounding marriage equality look likely to make it.

Expected marriage equality referendums:
• The pro-equality domestic partnership initiative (already made it onto the ballot)
• The anti-equality definition of marriage between one man and one woman is likely to make it, too

Brown doesn't expect antigay activist Will Perkins' ban on domestic partnerships to show up on the ballot. And the pro-gay countermove sounds like it's already dead: it was an amendment to the state constitution saying that domestic partnerships are not "similar to marriage."
