Watch: Christine Quinn Weeps at Presser After Marriage Decision

Andy Towle December 4, 2009

Quinn

At a press conference Thursday morning, New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn broke down while delivering an emotional explanation of what she believed happened at the marriage vote on Wednesday.

Said Quinn: "At the end of the day, people did the wrong thing. There may in fact be a lot of…political outside factors that made this vote very difficult for people. But I don't care. My father is 83-years-old. Kim's father is 83-years-old. Our mothers died when we were girls, coincidentally…so how a roomful of people who've never met me…don't think it's fair to raise the likelihood that herfather and my father can see us dance at our wedding…Well, I don't really care about a coup. I don't care that people ganged up on Dede Scozzafava who's a courageous woman. What I care about is that my life isn't any better today."

Watch, AFTER THE JUMP…
