AS NEW HOPE GOES, so goes Pennsylvania?

AS NEW HOPE GOES, so goes Pennsylvania?

The surge in support for gay marriage in the Keystone State comes right after 2010 Census data showed that the antique-laden riverfront borough in upper Bucks County is among the nation's Top 10 towns for same-sex couples - the first time a Pennsylvania community has made that list.

Nearly 5.9 percent of New Hope households reported including a same-sex couple, the Census reported, the eighth highest in the nation. No. 1 is Provincetown, Mass., on the tip of Cape Cod.
