If you consider the will of the voters to be fundamentally unfair, it should be redressed in the courts. If the courts do not provide proper redress, then, perhaps, at that stage it is fair to test the strenght of the system and engage in the more radical idea of public officals actively breaking the law.
It will be tested in the courts, and the definitive answer will come from those courts. This move merely triggers that process. And, if the courts eventually disapprove, those marriages will all be void.

Not voided. Void. Big difference.
