Ok but who is he replacing?
MA-08 is represented by Stephen Lynch. Lynch is a PRO-LIFE MODERATE who had to be harranged into supporting and then voted AGAINST the ACA. He referred to climate change as an “elitist” problem. He does not support abolishing qualified immunity.

Lynch is also not a particularly productive senator. In +10 yrs hes been primary sponsor on 8 bills. 6 were memorials/commemorative/remembrance. He has a lousy history of bicameral coalition building.

But Stacy, is this possible?
YES IT ABSOLUTELY IS.
Polling shows Dr. Robbie within reach, and a huge percentage of people in the district are still undecided.
The election is Sept 1. There is no Republican challenger, the primary is winner take all.

What can I do that takes the least effort?
- Retweet this thread. Share the message.
- Send a few bucks Robbie’s way.
I just threw him $50. See how easy that was? I spent way more time writing this post.
