I voted around 10:30 this morning and inquired from the poll workers if the snow had impacted voter turn out. I was told emphatically that turn out (at least in Ward 7 - Boston) has been quite high. If you have not voted - stop what you are doing and vote today before the polls close.
20-JAN UPDATE
Unless you live under a rock, chances are you have heard that the Republican Scott Brown has won the open seat in the US Senate to fill the remaining two years of Sen. Kennedy's seat. This represents the first time that a Republican has been a US Senator from my state since 1972. Brown was not my candidate of choice, but I do wish him well and the best of luck. I hope he is as moderate as he portrayed himself when running for office.

Yes, there seems to be a lot riding on the outcome of the election in your fair state! Best wishes...
Ah well the results of the vote were not what I had wanted. MA has elected a Republican to the US Sentate for the first time since 1972.
I hope that Brown represents the state admirably, but I think he'll be out of office when the remaining two years are up.
