Massachusetts Senate Special Election
Ed Markey (D) v. Gabriel Gomez (R)
WHAT TO WATCH FOR TONIGHT:
1. Ed Markey has been leading in the pre-election polls by around 10%. If the race is not called immediately in his favor, we could be in for an interesting night.
2. Pay attention to which areas begin reporting vote-totals first. If results from Boston come in first, Markey’s lead will be exaggerated. If the rural countryside comes in first, Gomez’s statewide numbers will be exaggerated.
3. If the race has not been called within a few minutes, watch the suburbs. Markey will dominate the urban areas, while Gomez will win the rural areas. If Markey leads in the suburbs, Gomez is finished. If Gomez leads in the suburbs, the night could run late.
