We've been reporting today about the marriages that were supposed to begin in Idaho and Nevada but were stopped by a stay issued by Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy of the 9th Circuit's ruling which came down yesterday. We're still following reports of couples who showed up today at government offices in both states seeking marriage licenses who were turned away following Justice Kennedy's order.
Take a look at 8 photos from Twitter documenting the ups and downs happening in Idaho today for same-sex couples, AFTER THE JUMP…
