I think MAGA-style Republicans might struggle in Massachusetts—which is already pretty true—but a moderate Republican could definitely have a good shot since almost 70% of voters in MA are unenrolled. Anyways someone wrote their case for a NO vote and I’m going to feature it on MDN tomorrow.

An op-ed I wrote today in Mass Daily News about my support for Q3 received thousands of views

While quite a few people in my circle oppose the measure, I stand by my support for Yes on 3

I believe MA is moving in the wrong direction due to progressive policies (high taxes, soaring energy costs, sanctuary policies, etc)

Q3 has the chance to weaken their power tremendously which is why Boston DSA, Wu, Pressley, Mass. Progressives all want you to vote NO

Massachusetts progressives desperately want you to vote No on Question 3, here is why

@AmericanGal2021 I have been hearing that, but this is what happened in California during the gubernatorial election this year, and living in Boston, watching uncontested primary after uncontested primary, has become quite frustrating.

@LeoGetzNFT Yeah that is true. I’ll also add that ‘unknown’ is a little concerning this late in the game.

A new UMass Poll drops tomorrow but there is a preview… the word cloud is quite interesting.

For Maura Healey the top 5 words were: Liar, democrat, good, liberal, and honest.

For Mike Minogue:
MAGA, republican, unknown, conservative, and honest…

Which one stands out to you?

[Mass Daily News @MassDailyNews]

'Liar' is the top word Massachusetts voters use to describe Governor Maura Healey, per new UMass Poll

Figured it out. A Tweetdelete task, for when I was cleaning up the previous account here to transition to my personal account, never got cancelled 🤦‍♂️
