After flipping a Massachusetts Senate seat in May, Susan Moran (D-Falmouth) held onto her seat in the Plymouth & Barnstable district in the November general election.
Moran topped Bourne attorney Jay McMahon, receiving 56 percent of the vote to his 44 percent. In all, Moran got 55,560 votes and McMahon got 43,573. The first time they ran against each other in the special election, Moran also won the race 56.2 percent to 43.7 percent.
For those who oppose ranked-choice voting, Tuesday night was a victory.
That includes the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance, which opposed the bill and wrote the official argument against Question 2 in the Massachusetts voters guide sent to households across the state before the 2020 general election. Bay State voters rejected the measure 55 percent to 45 percent.
