Shame on the State Dems

Posted on Thursday 4 December 2003

Greater Boston had a piece last night on the suit the State Republican party is bringing to change the Legislature’s decision to hold a special election for Cheryl Jacques’ vacated seat on the same day as the Democratic primary. State Democratic Party head Phil Johnson was defending the legislature, claiming that in a budget crisis the state needed to save money holding elections. What absurdity. The Legislature’s ploy is transparent and shameful, and while I can understand that power players like the Senate president do shameful things as part of their job, it doesn’t help the Democratic party to have its head get on television and essentially lie. After the gubernatorial race debacle, why is this man still in charge of anything, much less the PR face of the Democratic party?
