51%  D - DANIELLE GREGOIRE, Marlborough [MEQ, PP, NARAL]

49%  R - *STEVEN LEVY, Marlborough [MCFL]

This is a rematch of two years ago. Gregoire is an insufferable moonbat who got beaten by Levy after just one term in office. Now she's trying to get back in.

74%  D - *KAY KHAN, Newton [MEQ, Trans, PP, NARAL]

26%  R - GREER TAN SWISTON, Newton

A typical Newton liberal, Khan is thick-headed and condescending. Greer is a great contender; she's the only Republican on the 24-member Newton Board of Aldermen!

81%  D - *SEAN GARBALLEY, Arlington [MEQ, Trans, NARAL]

19%  R - JOSEPH MONJU, Arlington [MCFL]

Garballey is a young, obnoxious liberal zealot, who unfortunately fits in with his district. We'd love to see Monju beat him, but it's a tough one.

22%  O - JAMES GAMMILL, Belmont

20%  R - TOMMASINA OLSON, Belmont [NARAL, MCFL]

Gammill is running as a member of the "Open Innovative Government Party." Oddly, NARAL and MCFL both endorse Olson. Rogers has also been endorsed by both state teachers unions and the SEIU. What does that tell you?

60%  D - *JASON LEWIS, Winchester [SOC, MEQ, Trans, PP, NARAL]

40%  R - GEORGE GEORGOUNTZOS, Stoneham [MCFL]

35th Middlesex - Malden, Medford

D - *PAUL DONATO, Medford [MCFL]

81%  D - JAMES MICHAEL MURPHY, Weymouth [Trans, NARAL]

12th Norfolk - Norwood, Walpole

61%  D - *JOHN ROGERS, Norwood [Trans, MCFL]

39%  R - JAMES M. STANTON, Walpole [MCFL]

This is an interesting race. Rogers, who at one time was staunchly pro-family but went south during the "gay marriage" issue, has been in office for decades. Stanton is a very good candidate, running a good race, and could beat him this time.

57%  D - JOSH CUTLER, Duxbury [MEQ, PP, NARAL]

43%  R - KAREN BARRY, Duxbury [MCFL]

Josh Cutler is a left-wing newspaper editor who has run for this every two years, losing to Webster. This time MassEquality is doing phone-banking for him. Let's hope he loses again.

18%  R - CHARLES KLAUDER, Chelsea [MCFL]

O'Flaherty, as chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, becomes more hostile to pro-family people every year. In 2011 he was instrumental in passing the Transgender Rights bill. He needs to be thrown out of office.

3rd Suffolk - Boston

D - *AARON MICHLEWITZ, Boston [Trans, NARAL]
