My town has officially condemned certain articles in the patriot act.
The real reason things seem to be getting worse up here is simply demographics.
Massachusetts has the highest percentage of single females in the country. This is mostly caused by first colleges admitting woman and now the colleges becoming super majority female. These females are mostly from out of state.
Single females outside minorities are one of the largest democratic voting blocks.
If you looked at voting results from past elections based on demographics Massachusetts would have returns similar to Ohio or Pennsylvania if the female population wasn't as heavily weighted.
Once the single woman marry they do change their voting patterns.
You're joking, right?
