Massachusetts Democrats Barely Help Candidates Looking to Unseat GOP Governor

For months now, the three Democrats running for governor have crisscrossed Massachusetts, arguing that voters should fire Republican Governor Charlie Baker.

It’s an argument that, for the most part, their fellow Democrats on Beacon Hill have not echoed.

Much has been said about the seeming incongruity that deeply Democratic Massachusetts regularly elects Republican governors. Noteworthy, too, is the fact that Baker, the nation’s most popular governor, is often a vocal opponent of the policies of President Trump.
