Probably, Democrats always win Boston.

At this point he might even win Newton. I doubt he takes Peoples Republik of Cambridge though

Safest D race in the country, along with CA-SEN.

Titanium moderate hero.

Calling it now: Baker will win the highest vote share of all gubernatorial candidates this year, including Asa Hutchinson, David Ige and Gavin Newsom. He may crack 70%.

What's even more notable is that Baker is outperforming Warren. He looks set to get close to 70% of the vote, while Warren may struggle to even crack 60%, which is embarrassing for a Democrat in Massachusetts. Even Hillary Clinton got over 60%.

Hillary got 60.01%. Not really that flattering.

Anyway, there is an obvious explanation why this race has shaped up as such, and its mostly because the MA governorship is rather inconsequential, and Baker has stylized himself as a nonpartisan(literally, thats all the ads he puts out talks about). This means he gets cross-support from Rs, Ds, and Is. The Senate, on the other hand, is a partisan race, meaning you get the traditional 60% D, 35% R, 5% Indie or whatever that always shapes up in these types of race.

It also kinda helps that Baker has practically blanketed the airwaves, to the point that I get at least 3 ads for him in commercial breaks(I finally understand FL posters :()

Your new signature is insufferable.
