How do they relate?
Well, I thought they didn't until I read this on Muggle Net, a Harry Potter fan blog I read...

HP Alliance Call to Action Regarding CA Proposition 8
The Harry Potter Alliance, continuing their perpetual effort to support equal rights for all, is asking for your help to ensure that every Californian be afforded the same liberties regardless of sexual orientation. Drawing on the lessons of love we learn from the Harry Potter series and remembering the greatest wizard of them all, Albus Dumbledore, the Alliance has been striving consistently to raise awareness about this serious issue. Today, Paul DeGeorge of Harry and the Potters writes in the HP Alliance Patronus Alert newsletter, “If you live in California and you are able to vote, I ask you to take some time and think about whether or not it's fair to deny couples the right to marry. Think of any people that you might know that would be affected by this constitutional amendment. Would it be legal to deny people the right to marry based on race or social status? If the answer to that question is no, then why should it be legal to do so based on sexual orientation?” If you are in California, sign up here to encourage fellow Californians in person or here to do so by phone! If you’re not in California, sign up here! You can also raise awareness by sending messages to spread the word. Help California defeat Prop. 8 and make love legal!

I don't think I can like Harry Potter anymore. Or at least not this blog. Seriously, this sickens me. Harry Potter fans don't read this blog to hear political agendas. And I will no longer be reading it.
Personally, I don't know why everyone is freaking out about Prop 8 being an equal rights issue. The way I see it, IT'S NOT! It's protecting churches. It's protecting religious beliefs. It's preserving equal rights with regards to freedom of religion and religious observance.
I'm not from California, but if I were, I'd vote YES on Prop 8.
Vent over :)
