Trump Looms Large Even In Local Races

Boston Globe: “For local and statewide campaigns normally walled off from Washington, Trump has loomed large across the ballot in Massachusetts this year, permeating the dialogue and campaign messaging in races that are usually dominated by local, not federal, issues.”

Said legislative candidate Lindsay Sabadosa (D): “He’s kind of like that figure — he who shall not be named — who sort of looms above all things. Even at my campaign kickoff, I was asked: ‘What can you do, as a state representative, about Trump?’”
