"Target better get to expanding their same sex wedding card selection," commented Twitter user Lena, who tweeted a photo Wednesday from the greeting card aisle at Target in Maple Grove.

"Wedding gatherings on the eve of Aug. 1 anticipate the legalization of same-sex marriage in Minnesota. After the stroke of 12, Minnesota will number among 13 states where same-sex couples can legally marry. ...
"Everyone is Minnesota is tired of the issue, Rep. Kurt Zellers, R-Maple Grove, Republican gubernatorial candidate, recently said."
