Arlington, Markeychusetts

September 3, 2020 By Pablo

At the time of the 2010 census, 29 municipalities had a larger population than Arlington. In Markeychusetts, it's much, much bigger. Arlington had the fourth largest Markey plurality (margin of victory) in the … [Read more...]

Mapping Super Tuesday in Massachusetts

March 19, 2020 By Pablo

The voting patterns in the 2020 Massachusetts Democratic presidential primary are fascinating. I pulled a download of the precinct-by-precinct data from the Secretary of the Commonwealth's website. There are filters on each candidate's … [Read more...]

Caucus scoreboard – what’s happening out there?

February 29, 2020 By Pablo

This morning, Arlington had its caucus and Ed Markey won all 37 delegates and 6 alternates. My Twitter feed seems to think Ed is doing well elsewhere, including a sweep in Brookline. If you have caucus results, please add your numbers in … [Read more...]

2020 Predictions

December 31, 2019 By Pablo

December 23, 2019 By Pablo

My Twitter field has come alive with a burst of chatter about Rep. Joe Kennedy challenging Ed Markey in the 2020 Democratic primary for the US Senate. One of the first to chime in was Doug Heye, whose Twitter profile states he is a "CNN … [Read more...]

How did we do? A look at last year’s predictions.

January 8, 2019 By Pablo
