Democrats Lead Registration Surge in Boston Ahead of Election
Boston Democrats claim a boom in voter names with 200 added at central headquarters in the old Court House yesterday. Registration offices run 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. citywide, 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. in wards. President Donovan touts expected 600 plus naturalizations. Republicans face internal strife amid accusations of “frying the fat” in several departments. Mayor Curtis faces fire department resistance to a one day in seven pledge, while park ways and other city projects see renewed attention. Quincy’s campaign letter signals a warm election season, and South Boston aldermanic contests heat up with gatekeeping over delegates and potential nominees including Lamb, Charlies, or Gore.
