Wow,
Pressley won! I guess yard sign counts may be a reliable election predictor? There is this old neighborhood garage mechanic that had a Ayanna Pressley sign up. That did raise my eyebrow, but I didn't think it was enough.
She'll represent our positions very well. The same situation that often happened with Capuano will probably happen with her, in which we call the office to ask them to do something only to find out they are ahead of the game.
The only things I might come to miss are the excellent constituent communication and downstream results of changing committee positions.
