Same-sex marriage advocates, outraged at the State Senate's rejection in December, are planning to spend in the high six figures range to influence the State Senate races this year. Their first target: Hiram Monserrate, the Queens Democrat trying to reclaim the seat he lost after the Senate expelled him because he slashed his girlfriend's face with broken glass. In the three weeks leading up to the special election, the group, called Fight Back New York, will send out upwards of 100,000 pieces of mail in Monserrate's district, the Times reports. "Politicians who deny gays and lesbians basic equality should be thrown out of office, starting with convicted criminal Hiram Monserrate," warns Bill Smith, and adviser to philanthropist Tim Gill, a major backer of the Fight Back PAC.
