According to this episode, Colorado, United States is for gay marriage, however, the law in Colorado, United States says that marriage is only for people of the opposite sex (man and woman). The state of Colorado is an unusual mix of very Liberal and very Conservative areas. Boulder is one of the most Liberal cities in the USA, and the opposite is true of Colorado Springs. Other areas lie in the middle. As a result, the state balances out as a swing state in elections; as such, it is not a place likely to legalize same-sex marriage in the early stages of the process.
