Final polls before the real polls:

Nobody's tracking Question 1 that I can see: my assumption is that it's a shoo-in, but that may just be wishful thinking on my part. (That's the "auto manufacturers have to sell diagnostic information to independent repair shops at the same price that they sell it to dealerships" one.) The fly in the ointment is the "Skip Question 1" movement: a "grassroots" organization funded by the dealerships which claims that we don't need to vote for Question 1 anymore, because of the compromise.

For Question 2, Death with Dignity/Physician-Assisted Suicide, it looks like the Commonwealth feels about as ambivalent as I do: 44% support the measure, 42% oppose it, and 14% are undecided/decline to answer, with a margin of error of +/- 4%. And I got to say, that's about how I feel -- 44% in favor, 42% opposed, and 14% undecided.

Question 3, Medical Marijuana seems to be about 60% in favor, 35% opposed, 5% undecided/decline to answer. That's about how I feel about it, too -- largely in favor of it.

Question 1 is very much not a shoo-in, because the legislation passed and a lot of people who support the general idea of Q1 but know that the legislation passed will vote no.

I'm hoping that the AAA's campaign explaining that the whole "Skip The Question" thing is a scam run by the dealerships actually helps.

It's so strange to find myself supporting an AAA lobbying effort. That almost never happens.

Cambridge being Cambridge had (surprise!) 5 questions instead of 3, but the last 2 were non-binding 'message to our representatives' to vote in specific ways that seemed kind of obvious if they remained democrats and ignroed if somehow a republican slipped in.

Yep, we had those two questions, too: the "we don't think that corporations are people" one and the "we actually LIKE things like social safety nets and getting out of Afghanistan" one.

[unquietsoul5.livejournal.com]

Yes, those same two questions. :-)

We had 'em out here in Greenfield, too, so I'm guessing they're statewide.

I was pleasantly surprised.
