A number of San Francisco's tech bosses -- including Twitter chief Jack Dorsey and Patrick Collison of payment startup Stripe -- resisted the proposal.

Kentucky county clerk who refused same-sex marriage licenses loses re-election bid

Kentucky county clerk who refused same-sex marriage licenses loses re-election bidKim Davis, the county clerk in Kentucky who was briefly jailed for defying a court order to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, has lost her bid for re-election. SEE ALSO: Lurking John King is the best part of CNN's election coverage As reported by CNN, the controversial conservative Republican was beaten by Democrat Elwood Caudill Jr. in Rowan County by about 650 votes, according to unofficial results posted by the state elections board. Unofficial results have Elwood Caudill Jr winning the Rowan Co. Clerk's race, defeating incumbent Kim Davis. @WKYT pic.twitter.com/h2GiVresEO — Matthew Rand (@MatthewWKYT) November 7, 2018 Davis, part of a denomination called Apostolic Christianity, made headlines in 2015 after she refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, despite a historic Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex marriages across the country the same year.  Davis was found in contempt of court for not issuing the licenses and also stopping her six deputy clerks from signing them, and she spent five days in jail. Kentucky later changed the law, so that marriage licenses statewide that no longer require county clerks' names to appear on them. Davis was soon back in the seat, earning just shy of $80,000 a year as country clerk, which WDRB reports as more than twice what the average job pays in Rowan County, Kentucky. Caudill won the Democratic nomination in May to take on Davis, defeating David Ermold, a gay man who was denied a marriage license by Davis "under God's authority," in 2015.  Ermold announced he was running for county clerk in December, and raised more than $200,000 in funding. But Caudill, chief deputy in the county property valuation office, eventually won over the Democrats.

Finally, an advent calendar full of wine to get you through the holidaysThis holiday season, give yourself the gift that keeps on giving: an advent calendar filled with wine. Grocery store chain Aldi released its Festive Collection Wine Advent Calendar on Wednesday, which contains 24 6.37-ounce bottles of wine — more than enough vino to last you right up until Christmas day. SEE ALSO: The '1 alcoholic bev' meme is Too Real, but in a good way Purchasers can expect to find 12 varieties of wine in their advent calendars that come from Chile to the U.S., according to its product description. It includes Sauvignon Blanc, Malbec, Merlot, White Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Prosecco and more. Festive!Image: AldiThe advent calendar was popular overseas last year, but this is the first time that it'll be sold in the U.S., Thrillist reports. Unfortunately, not every Aldi will carry the calendar, but you can check its website to see if a store nearby is selling this beautiful bounty. Oh, and you might want to pair your wine calendar with the cheese advent calendar selling at Target — a solid holiday match. Aldis' wine advent calendars will hit shelves on November 7. But be warned: Customers will be limited to a single wine advent calendar per purchase.  [H/T: Thrillist] WATCH: This man got engaged to boxed wine and we can't even get a text back
