Rooting for Markey, but I'm expecting a Kennedy win in the mid or high single digits. Unfortunately.

Speaking as someone who actually knows this state and what’s going on - on the ground. It’s evident that complacency combined with (IDK how else to say it) uninformed voters - has made this thing LIKELY Markey.

It’s frankly embarrassing. This isn’t Warren we’re talking about. It’s ED MARKEY. Against a young and talented politician who is ALSO a Kennedy and Markey is going to win? I almost feel as pathetic as Tennesseee who voted Blackburn over Bredesen.

Aside from being a Kennedy, what is Kennedy's rationale for running?

I feel like I'm the only one here who wants Kennedy to win lol

Why do you want Kennedy to win?  Can you name a policy position where you favor him over Markey?

Why does there have to be a policy position difference? Why can’t someone simply trust Kennedy to do a better job. Why can’t someone simply like the amount of energy JK3 brings to the campaign more than Markey who against is fairly non existent around these parts.

The whole dont challenge an incumbent thing makes sense at the Presedential level. And maybe in states where a Senate race is a tossup and challenging the incumbent could tilt the race. But in a Safe state where it bears no effect on what party holds the seat - who cares ?

Markey authored the GND

Why don't you want the Green New Deal?
