Badly out-of-date.
As of August 2011, there are 41 states that ban [[same-sex marriage]], mostly by Constitution. Minnesota has a state law prohibiting same-sex marriage, but will have a referendum on the ballot in November 2012 to include the ban in the state constitution.
As of May 2015, there are only 13 states that ban [[same-sex marriage]], mostly by Constitution.
Those states are:
*[[Arkansas]]
*[[Georgia]]
*[[Kentucky]]
*[[Louisiana]]
*[[Michigan]]
*[[Mississippi]]
*[[Missouri]]
*[[Nebraska]]
*[[North Dakota]]
*[[Ohio]]
*[[South Dakota]]
*[[Tennessee]]
*[[Texas]]
