Here's what you need to know about Rasmussen and where he stands ideology-wise: He is the head of the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association Board of Trustees. Ocean Grove is a religious enclave, part of Neptune Township, on the New Jersey shore. Last year, Rasmussen spearheaded the decision to deny permission for two lesbian couples to have their civil union ceremonies on the OG boardwalk gazebo, even though that land had been granted a tax exemption by the state, so long as OG provided equal access to all.

It took a few legal hearings and involvement by the state civil rights division to determine OG had been wrong in its decision, and the state pulled the parcel's tax exemption.

That incident tells you where Rasmussen's head is. By the way, he and his dad founded ESPN. Weird.
