"The Choice" in question is only whether or not a certain group of people are in fact legally permitted to make a choice of their own (in this case to marry). As for the sanctity of the electoral system, that conservative attitude only works when you're not talking about a human rights issue, because human rights issues are always about minority rights - so a majority vote never works. If moving forward in human rights were up to the electoral system we'd still have slavery, a ban on mixed marriages and the Lord's prayer in schools.
