Quote of the Day
“That’s really amazing to me,” Galvin told reporters. “There was a time not that many years ago where 38 percent to 40 percent was more steady on the Democratic side.”
Democrats now make up just 27 percent of registered voters in Massachusetts, Secretary of State Bill Galvin said on Monday. Republicans are down to just 8 percent. And the share of unenrolled voters is nearing 64 percent.
