Polls Open Today

Don't forget, if you live in the 2nd Middlesex state Senate district, today is the special election between Representative Pat Jehlen, the Democrat and Somerville Alderman Bill White, the Republican. It will be interesting to see what the turnout is like for the general, as compared to the primary.

In addition, today is the preliminary election for Boston City Council. The top eight candidates (out of 15 running) will move on and compete for the four at-large seats in November. I'm not going to pretend I know anything about Boston politics, so check out DFA Boston if you want to learn more about that election.

As always, you can find your polling place here.
