Here's my current town by town ratings map for Massachusetts, the the 3rd most likely state to have a clean town sweep (after VT and Hawai'i) Even that seems impossible. Feel free to ask if you want to know about a certain town
From MA, this looks fairly accurate to me. I think I'd put Mashpee in the lean Dem category but that's pretty nitpicky.
I flipped Mashpee back and forth when I was making it lol. It was one of the towns i had trouble deciding, along with Boxford, Braintree, Peabody, and Scituate. But all in all, the Mass town map was much easier than the NH one I'm doing now. Much fewer tiny swingy towns
I'd make Westwood a tossup... it's very similar to Walpole demographically and there's no way it is safe D.
Isnt Westwood a bit more rich and snooty like Wellesley now? I havent been there in a long time, but when we played them in travel baseball we always thought they were filthy rich. Also in that area, what do you think of Norwood, its working class but it didnt trend to Trump last year. And also Canton. I'm a south shore guy so thats my strong point but once you get out to 95 im not as familar with the towns
Here are the towns in the area I'd say I can speak for:
Dedham: Safe D. Has a good-sized working/middle class population and is very close to Boston, definitely gentrified in the last decade (LOTS of development).
Needham: Safe D. Pretty much the same as Wellesley.
Westwood: Tossup. It's very wealthy, but votes much more Republican than Needham and Wellesley (and is also whiter).
Norwood: Safe D. Pretty much the same as Dedham, but a little less well-off.
Canton: Safe/Likely D. Can't really speak for it well, but it's got the reputation of Westwood without being as nice.
