The average price for a gallon of gasoline is down in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Yet in one county, the price still exceeds $5 per gallon. In Nantucket County, the price remains well above the state average ($3.812 per gallon, according to AAA). On the island, the average price for a gallon of gas is $5.246 — more than $1.40 higher than the average in the rest of the state, according to AAA.
In the race for governor, former state representative Geoff Diehl (R-Whitman) has an edge over Democratic attorney general Maura Healey — among unenrolled voters.
While Healey leads Diehl by 18 points overall in a recently-released Emerson College poll — 52 percent to 34 percent — Diehl is actually doing better than Healey when it comes to unenrolled voters. With those voters, Diehl has the edge 45 percent to 39 percent. Unenrolled voters — who are registered to vote but not formally aligned with a political party — make up 58 percent of the Massachusetts electorate, according to Emerson College.
