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.
