The nine questions on our ballot in Massachusetts could dramatically change our Commonwealth. Here's where I stand on each of them.

The @BayStateBanner, Boston's Black newspaper of record, just endorsed NO on Question 3.
They see through the false promises of this dangerous ballot question and know it would do NOTHING to make our government more representative of the people.
Vote No On 3!!

"In many ways, the proposal in Question 3 is a misleading solution that has gone searching for pretexts that voters might find compelling."

Question 3 is a power grab, plain and simple. It is a billionaire, private equity-backed scheme to rig our elections, to tilt the playing field, and make it harder for working-class people to run for office and to win.
And I want to be clear about who stands to lose if this harmful ballot measure is passed next month.
It is the single mom working two jobs who wants to fight for affordable housing in the State House.
It is the union organizer who has spent a lifetime fighting for workers' rights and wants to bring that fight to Congress.
It is the community advocate who knows what it means when your neighborhood is overlooked, your school is underfunded, your family is struggling to make ends meet, and wants to do something about it.
It's the first-time candidate who doesn't have a rolodex of wealthy donors or millions of dollars to spend on television ads.
Question 3 would stack the deck against those people and hand even more power to those who already have too much of it.
If we're serious about reforming elections, we should pass Ranked Choice Voting. We should lower the voting age. And we should vote YES on Question 4 to make Election Day voter registration a reality in Massachusetts.
But Question 3 ain't it.
Massachusetts must Vote NO on Question 3 to stop billionaires from buying our elections and keep power in the hands of the people.

Why are private equity execs flocking to Question 3?
It's because they think it's a good for their bank accounts and a way to crush nascent working-class populism. I unpack it in the piece here.

This remains one of the best pieces I've read about CA's jungle primary system and how it's mission from day one was to increase the number of corporate Dems in the Legislature (not anything about "democracy") -- and how it has succeded in that goal.

Early voting starts today in Massachusetts! There are 9 ballot questions and private equity is spending billions to undermine our democracy! @ProgressiveMass has a great voter guide with useful background on each question if you prefer a deeper dive! progressivemass.com/2026ball…

Having many good candidates should be a blessing; Question 3 ("jungle primaries") would make it a curse.
But the problem isn’t just a lockout effect: it’s all the perverse, undemocratic incentives that fear of such a lockout creates — and how they all reinforce the role of $.

.@AyannaPressley knows what's up.
First in WBUR's Mass. Politics newsletter:
Just a few hours after former Gov. Charlie Baker endorsed Question 3, Rep. Ayanna Pressley came out against the all-party primary ballot question #mapoli

Who's funding Question 8, the ballot question to roll back the legalization of marijuana? An out-of-state dark money group founded by George W. Bush speechwriters, alleged to be bankrolled by the liquor industry and the pharmaceutical industry.
Vote NO on 8.

MASS VOTERS: NO ON 3
It’s raining hard here in MA, and the private equity money has been raining down hard in support of Question 3 (jungle primaries).
Remember, folks: The most dangerous words in the English language are “We’re from private equity, and we’re here to help.”
Vote NO on 3. #mapoli

I haven't looked into these yet on my own, but I'm going to use this as a starting point.
MA has 9 statewide ballot questions this year.
Be an informed voter!
