OK so I'm starting a little less than 24 hours before the polls open but let's get going. On this thread we can discuss races in MA, New England--and beyond. Howie Carr ping list members will be pinged (suggested you add this thread to favorites/bookmarks). If others wish to be added you may ping me (for this thread) though probably best you may just bookmark the thread.
Follow us through the long election day and night and beyond.

he said. Wish it was Howie on to call him a moonbat.

Back to MA, GQuagmire posted:
>>MA House 31 members.Two others probable recount. Big increase.
more wins for GOP John Kasich new gov of Ohio over Ted Strickland despite many visits by Obama and Biden
MA is still MA as CA is still CA. No changes there.... Living in NH, I’d like to thank the voters in MA for helping the NH economy. When Deval jacked the sales tax by 25% (5.0 to 6.25%) last year, that apparently did not bother the voters who signed on for 4 more years of Deval and also rejected a sales tax rollback to 3% in a ballot question. NH and the retailers along the border thank you..
What is next for MA? Sales tax of 8%? How about a graduated state income tax? Maybe get rid of the pesky proposition 2 1/2?
booze double tax repealed, though so that may help MA
package stores. MA state rep Joyce Spiliotis was caught by Herald cameras buying booze & cigs in NH (after voting for
those taxes, I believe). She got re-elected but now might want to buy that stuff here instead. Don’t worry NH, I head
up there and eat at your restaurants (meals taxes even
higher than those of MA) and might buy stuff there,no
sales tax. (I bought my XM radio yrs ago at the Best Buy
nr Fox Run Mall; saved $1.50, big deal—of course our
sales tax is even higher than 5 per cent like it was then)
