Turnout was heavy Tuesday as Massachusetts voters trudged through a light snow to choose their next U.S. senator, one who could determine the fate of the Democrats’ health care overhaul plan and much of President Barack Obama’s domestic agenda.
Late polling by the campaigns indicated the race between Democratic state Attorney General Martha Coakley and Republican state Sen. Scott Brown was too close to call. However, a Suffolk University poll of three key towns Saturday and Sunday ”” Fitchburg, Gardner and Peabody ”” gave Brown a comfortable lead in each.
Read it all. Brown at 81.8 on Intrade at present, Coakley at 20.0.
Matt Drudge has a good headline: “The Boston Tea Party.”
