I can't vouch for the research behind it (here's the source material), but this quiz purports to cross- check your stand on the issues against those of the presidential candidates. It's sort of like e-Harmony for voters looking for a candidate to love.

It'll be called "GaYbor City" of course. Read all about it in this press release from Ybor Historic District Civic Association president, Tony LaColla:

Tampa, FL (September 19, 2007) - Businesses and residents have united to create a gay district called the GaYbor District in the west end of the Ybor City National Landmark Historic District in Tampa, Florida. In the past year, several gay and gay friendly businesses have sprung up in Ybor City and now several other business owners and residents in the gay community are looking to Ybor as a potential new home. With excitement growing, Historic Ybor City is developing into a popular gay and *** destination.

Since July over 35 businesses and organizations have come together into the GaYbor District Coalition with a mission to “form a broad-based coalition, representative of the various interests of GLBT owned and friendly businesses, property owners, and residents for the purpose of promoting economic growth in the Ybor City National Landmark Historic District in the Tampa Bay Area and prosperity of all its members.”
