What you're seeing isn't the actual language, but what gets put on the ballot (which, I must say, is a screwy way to have people vote on an amendment - I would think you'd have to put up the actual words you're changing from and to, but, hey, what do I know?) and the actual language is clearer.

My question wasn't about the analysis. My question was about the language that we're voting for. I do not think that the following language is any clearer than the language on the ballot, and I think, reading the language on its face, that a reasonable person could determine that the legislature is asking us to eliminate marriage all together.
Sec. 32. (a) Marriage in this state shall consist only of the union of one man and one woman.
(b) This state or a political subdivision of this state may not create or recognize any legal status identical or similar to marriage.
