Khazei:
“What matters is how do we get Trump out of the White House.”
Use young energy to “finally break the log-jam in Congress, break the back of Mitch McConnell.”
“That’s what I am talking about.”

Khazei’s close relations with high-profile figures have helped him raise significant cash.
“Khazei, however, has been one of the most successful at raising cash so far, and ended March with more than $780,000 cash on hand...”

NEW: @JakeAuch, a US Marine veteran and current Newton City Councilor, has narrowly won the crowded Democratic primary to replace @joekennedy in #MA04, @DecisionDeskHQ projects, narrowly defeating former Brookline select board member @jessemermell businessinsider.com/massachusetts-…
Auchincloss is all-but-assured to go on to win the general election in this safely Democratic district, which voted for Hillary Clinton by over 24 points in 2016, against GOP nominee Julie Hall. #MA04 includes some suburbs around Boston & stretches down to the South Coast region
Auchincloss performed particularly well in the South Coast region. He was backed by VoteVets, the With Honor Fund, a slew of local elected officials and groups including the mayors of New Bedford and Fall River, and secured the endorsement of the Boston Globe editorial board
Can see a wide path for Jake Auchincloss in #MA04, but this isn't a clear story of anybody spoiling anybody: Grossman was going for the same voters as him (from same base), Leckey and Linos going for the same voters as Mermell.
That said it reminds me a bit of those CA races last cycle where a couple candidates would have no strategy for victory but keep running anyway.
This Intercept piece touting Ihssane Leckey - who's heading for fifth place in #MA04 - used an internal Leckey poll to suggest that Mermell was stalled out. A better metric might have been $. Leckey mostly had to self-fund, as she raised a bit over $250k from donors.
Shaping up to be the most competitive high-profile race of the night: Jesse Mermell & Jake Auchincloss are trading the lead in the open #MA04 primary. Everyone else left quite a bit behind. Progressives splitting vote here; Auchincloss would be win for moderate wing.
Brookline (right next to Boston) reported all of its precincts, and Jesse Mermell (who's from there) DOMINATED: This powers her to a suddenly-big 32% to 21% lead over Auchincloss. But 75% of the district (none of which will be as good for Mermell as Brookline) is left.
Still a lot of the vote is out in #MA04, and Auchincloss has cut his deficit over Mermell significantly: Mermell now leads 25% to 22%, and favorable territory for Auchincloss remains.
First town counted in #MA01, Windsor, suggets higher turnout than 2018, including some new Neal votes.
2018
Neal: 100
Amatul-Wadud: 55

Neal: 128

First flip is Worthington, though everything is good *enough* for Neal to keep him ahead overall. (The first Holyoke precinct was great for Neal.)

We're expecting at least 1.1 million Dem primary votes statewide, and more than 100k in #MA01, so I'm not over-analyzing based on the precincts in, just looking at towns that are finished.
The polls in Massachusetts close in 🚨 one hour 🚨!! I'll have live coverage of all the biggest races tonight on @businessinsider with election results from @DecisionDeskHQ, it'll all be in this thread starting here with our #MASen live results blog: businessinsider.com/ed-markey-joe-…
Next up, our live results blog for the crowded 7-way Democratic primary to replace Joe Kennedy in #MA04: businessinsider.com/massachusetts-…
Here's our live results post for the Democratic primary race between @RepRichardNeal, the powerful chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, and Holyoke Mayor @AlexBMorse in Western Massachusetts-based #MA01 businessinsider.com/richard-neal-v…
🗳🇺🇸1. ¡Hoy hay primarias en Massachusetts! Estaré siguiendo los resultados en este hilo de Twitter y a partir de las 7:30pm EST en twitch.tv/nanisimo, por si queréis ir cogiendo sitio.
Puede ser una GRAN noche para la izquierda en Nueva Inglaterra. Vamos a ver por qué. 👇🏼

🗳🇺🇸2. Lo más importante del día son las primarias senatoriales (#MASen). El progresista Ed Markey, en el Senado desde 2013, defiende escaño con la ayuda de su compañera Elizabeth Warren y de Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, con quien lanzó el #GreenNewDeal.
🗳🇺🇸3. Su rival es Joe Kennedy III, nieto de Bobby Kennedy, que quería aprovechar un año de elecciones tonto para arrebatarle el puesto a Markey sin ninguna razón demasiado específica.
Es más establishment que Markey en un estado cada vez más progresista.

I’m going to count down the six most important elections — or “election questions” — in Massachusetts today, in some rough order that combines substantive stakes & suspense, because why not.
6. The state’s most conservative congressmember, Lynch, faces a progressive challenger. This has not drawn enough attn for an upset to be likely, but keep an eye on #MA08 still—esp. for future cycles. (I previewed via voting rights: theappeal.org/politicalrepor…)
5. #MA04: open seat could go to a progressive — but also veer right if most conservative benefits from a 7-way race to snatch primary.
4. We increasingly see talk of sheriffs matter a ton. Well, here’s a sheriff’s race that takes those powers seriously. theappeal.org/politicalrepor…

It's primary election day in Massachusetts where Democratic Senator Ed Markey is being challenged by Rep. Joe Kennedy III.
16th term #MA01 Rep. Richard Neal, Ways & Means Chair & endorsed by Speaker Pelosi, faces Democratic primary challenger Alex Morse, supported by Ocasio-Cortez and progressive Justice Democrats who helped 3 Democratic primary opponents defeat Reps Clay, Engel & Lipinski this year.
It's open #MA04 House race today with Democratic Rep. Joe Kennedy III running for US Senate instead of a 5th House term.
