Amazon founder Jeff Bezos will make a hefty donation - $ 2.5 million - to lobby for the legalization of gay marriage in the U.S. capital of Washington. The vote on the so-called 'Referendum 74' is scheduled for next November 6, when it will decide the fate of gay couples in the state and the next U.S. president.
Besides Bezos, persons engaged in the technology industry as Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer, both from Microsoft, also made donations to the campaign (U.S. $ 100 000 each). Companies like Google, Facebook and Electronic Arts helped fund the campaign.
In the latest research on the subject, 51% of respondents said they were in favor of gay marriage and 42% said they were against the law.
