So many supporters are calling in trying to get more signs, more bumper stickers, more wave signs, that the campaign is hustling to meet demand.

Radio campaigns will also be heard, with well-respected Latino figures standing up for the sacred tradition of marriage. Religious leaders will be heard from as well. the rest
