2010 Mass Mudlinging Open

If you don't vote, you can't complain!

FRAMINGHAM, MA – Its that time again folks, when Massachusetts politics heat up even more than usual and just about anything goes.

Yes, it’s election time for the Massachusetts Governor, Treasurer, State Reps and few other other hot seats.

On top the contested races, and likely to get more people out to vote are three ballot questions, two of which have a lot of people talking.

Rather than “report”, I figured I just open up a with “Ready, Aim, Fire!”… and let you post ANYTHING related to any political race or ballot question that directly or indirectly affects Framingham, MA residents.

Ready… aim… fire!

MA Gov Candidates on Emily Rooney Show

State Auctions 1000 Items on eBay

18K GOLD NECKLACE sold for $1,875.00

BOSTON, MA – In the old days, when Massachusetts State government had items to auction off they would publish a public notice in several major newspapers and mail out a list to a few hundred in-the-know auction hounds, junk dealers, surplus buyers and collectors of all sorts of things.

The state would then take sealed bids for larger items, and arrange public auctions where a real live auctioneer would call out, “Who’ll give me $5.00?, …$4.00? $3.00?” …the bidding would start — and then usually end just as quickly — with many valuable items selling for pennies on the dollar.
