It’s shaping up to be a big night for the Democrats, but folks on both sides of the aisle are breathing easier in Massachusetts, as Question 1 went down BIG on election night. While all the votes haven’t been counted, news outlets are now reporting lopsided numbers, with the “No” side collecting as much as 69% of the vote.
This is a huge victory for Belmont, our schools, our town and the State as a whole and suggests that voters, looking down the barrel of a shrinking economy and cuts already at the state level, weren’t in the mood for gimmicks.
