Sixty-one percent of Spaniards say the government was right to legalize full marriage for same-sex couples, according to a new Instituto Opina poll.

Thirty-two percent think it was a mistake and about seven percent are unsure or refused to answer the question.

Pollsters quizzed 1,000 adults by phone on March 30. The margin of error is 3.1 percent.

Same-sex marriage also is legal in Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands and Massachusetts. A court ruling legalizing same-sex marriage in South Africa will take effect Dec. 1 unless Parliament makes the change sooner.
