UPDATE: The New York Senate has voted to legalize gay marriage by a vote of 33 to 29.
It's been one of the hottest topics on the web for the last week, but tonight the New York Senate will finally decide whether gay marriage will be legal in the third-most populated state in the U.S.
The controversial bill has gained steam in recent weeks, but its fate still depends on several swing voters. One of swing voters, NY Senator Greg Ball, a Republican, even asked his followers how he should vote.
