The Supreme Court voted in favor of same-sex marriage Friday, prompting county clerks throughout the country to start issuing their first marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples.
But as some couples rushed to get married following the historic ruling, some still can’t. County clerks in at least two states have been denying marriage requests after the state attorney generals for Louisiana and Mississippi each said the Supreme Court decision was not effective immediately.
“There is not yet a legal requirement for officials to issue marriage licenses or perform marriages for same-sex couples in Louisiana,” State Attorney General Buddy Calwell said in a statement on his office’s website, with Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood echoing his sentiments in another statement sent to circuit court clerks.
Below, we've mapped which counties have begun issuing licenses since the ruling was issued. We're updating this map as reports come in, so help us fill it in by tweeting to us @Mashable.
