As Massachusetts voters head to the polls, along with voters in 11 other states and one American territory as part of "Super Tuesday," tens of thousands of former Bay State Democrats will today cast ballots as either Republicans or unenrolled voters.
Secretary of State William Galvin said Monday that, since the beginning of the calendar year, nearly 20,000 Democrats have unenrolled from the party of Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. Of those voters, the vast majority — 16,347 — changed their status to "unenrolled." The remaining 3,455 enrolled as Republicans.
STATE HOUSE — Massachusetts drivers can expect to see a lot more technology on the roads later this year when the Department of Transportation begins to roll out its all-electronic tolling program and a new real-time traffic management system.
The most immediately noticeable change, especially for anyone who travels the Massachusetts Turnpike, will be the overhead structures being erected to support the open-road tolling system that will replace toll takers and booths.
