The results of 2158 of the 2158 municipalities are known. State: 64.1% yes, 35.9% no

I think most voted yes, but I'm confused as to what impact this vote would have on law.

It grants gay couples the same legal rights as straight couples in regards to marriage, including adoption, IVF, citizenship, widow's pension etc.

Awesome! I wasn't sure if this was like a confirmatory vote after the government representatives had already voted on it or what.
