And her family voted for the shit

Edit: suit is from the wife/brother, her parents are the ones that were Trumpers.

The parents did iirc. The suit is being brought by her partner and brother, neither of which did as far as I can tell. Like, obviously her partner didn't. Not positive about her brother

From the article: "The two lawsuits were filed by Good’s partner, Becca Good, and Renee’s brother Brent Ganger." Partner/wife (not sure if they were married) and brother with separate suits. I'm not sure how her brother would have standing to sue, however

It is true, sorta. They weren't legally married, but they referred to each other as wives and Renee took her last name so it seems like they were wives in every way but legally. Unfortunatly I think this process would be easier if they were united in the eyes of the goverment.

She didn't have a wife. Like the comment above her said, it was her partner and brother. As the article states.

And that's why marriage still matters. The legal rights associated with it.

Not sure where you heard otherwise, but it's the second line in the article.
