In Massachusetts, Governor Mitt Romney has ordered four cities to immediately hand over copies of all marriage license applications filed since Monday, the first day same sex couples could get married in the state. Romney is attempting to block any town or city from issuing marriage licenses to out-of-state couples. At least four towns and cities, Provincetown, Somerville, Worcester and Springfield, have defied the order. The Boston Globe reports Romney may seek an injunction as early as today to block the town and city clerks from marrying out-of-state couples. The clerks in those towns say they have never before been required to hand over marriage license applications to the state. The state hasn’t officially said why it has requested to review the licenses but a spokesperson for the governor said “marriages performed outside the law will be null and void.”
