All eyes are on now GOP extremists But any moderate needs just 4 allies to gain full leverage Dem leader @RepJeffries is clear: a bipartisan governing coalition is ready The one the Problem Solvers promised Let's do it at https://t.co/sJ1LG1UvkZ

Americans want a debate between moderates in the House, not Extreme vs. More Extreme. Let's give it to them by welcoming in five vulnerable GOP Problem Solvers into a stable governing coalition.

Informative candidate questionnaire for Boston City Council candidates from @DotNews In a smart question on partisanship & ideology, just 1 of 6 candidates used the word "progressive" Great service to #bospoli from @BillForry @gintautasd

Will Austin of the Boston Schools Fund urges lawmakers not to allow the Lottery to move online. Noting the Lottery's record profits, he says the state should not expand a gambling operation that disproportionately hits lower-income state residents.

refusing the Progressive Mass questionnaire is like a #mapoli victory cigar. Game isn't technically over, but it's over.

Just saw the latest poll from @PrioritiesMass and no surprise here—positives for the whole #mapoli delegation! (+18 for @sethmoulton!) Goes to show that voters appreciate leaders who unite, tell the truth, and do what's right, even when it's not politically expedient.

The most important political decisions in #mapoli, Griffin says, are made in these generally low-turnout elections. And that’s where the most important interventions can be made.

Black voter turnout in Massachusetts isn’t nearly as high as it could be.

When all three Black candidates for mayor of Boston fell short in 2021, there was broad concern about how to build Black political power in the city. Turns out, a local policy lab was quietly studying that question in real time. My latest for @GlobeIdeas:

Research from a @PrioritiesMass 2021 trial to increase Black voter turnout featured in today's Boston Globe from @dscharfGlobe #bospoli #mapoli
Roughly 30 percent of white Boston voters cast ballots in Boston’s 2021 mayoral preliminary, but only 25 percent of Black voters and 14 percent of Latino voters participated. What would it take to boost Black voter turnout in Boston? https://t.co/bMwL0vn3S0
