This week WBUR and CommonWealth Beacon released a poll of likely voters ahead of the November election. The poll was conducted by The MassINC Polling Group, the nonpartisan polling firm that we have worked with over many years, and was supported with funding from the Knight Election Hub. You can dive deeper into the presidential and senate race in Massachusetts, including voter issues and election integrity; public perception on a new law regarding transportation, zoning and housing density; voter division over the November ballot questions, including one that would end the use of standardized tests as a graduation requirement; as well as rising frustrations with the state legislature. Find links to all of our stories about what you need to know about the ballot questions here: https://lnkd.in/eGQAi4wE
