| Is there any reason they can't tie this in with the municipal elections? Do they have to be held separately? This seems like an unnecessary added expense to the taxpayers. |

| Seems like we can never catch a break. It would have saved us a few dollars if this could have been done in conjunction with our elections. |

Our dear friend Barrios doesn't care.
He's cashing in on Blue Cross.

| An opportunist like him will be back for another crack at elected office sooner or later. Let's just hope the voting public won't be fooled again by this guy. |

| Rep. Alice Wolff from Cambridge announced today that she is not going to undertake a Senate race. That leave Galluccio coming out of Cambridge. Any takers in Everett or is everyone tied up with the mayor's race? |
