WASHINGTON - The Senate rejected a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage by a wide margin Wednesday, delivering a stinging defeat to President Bush and other Republicans who had hoped the issue would rally GOP voters for the November elections.

They said "wide" because 60 yes votes would have been needed to bring the amendment to a yes-or-no decision.
