Deval’s chances: Sabutai runs the numbers

July 10, 2009 By Charley on the MTA

Sabutai ran some numbers over at his place, and came up with some verrry interesting implications for 2010: Hypothetical: Tim Cahill runs a meandering campaign that nonetheless does a bit better than Mihos and captures 10% of the vote, … [Read more...]

Has Cahill effectively announced that he’s running as an independent?

If you're familiar with #mapoli I have questions for you!

My intern is applying for an internship there - obvs I'm thrilled. 😊 What should she know about how the MA legislature is staffed? What other essential knowledge would you pass along?

It's April in #mapoli which means budget season is in full swing. The House will soon pitch a tax relief proposal alongside their 2024 fiscal plan.
