From the AP:

The Oregon Supreme Court on Thursday nullified nearly 3,000 marriage licenses issued to same-sex couples by Multnomah County a year ago, saying a single county couldn’t take such action on its own.

The court said while the county can question the constitutionality of laws governing marriage, they are a matter of statewide concern so the county had no authority to issue licenses to gay couples.

The court noted that last November, Oregonians approved a constitutional amendment that limits marriages to a man and a woman. The court also said that long before that vote, state law had set the same limitations on marriages since Oregon became a state.

[…] “We conclude that Oregon law currently places the regulation of marriage exclusively within the province of the state’s legislative power,” the court said.

Reached for comment, the Massachusetts Supreme Court sniffed, “legislative what‘s this now?  Ha.  How quaint.”
