This candidate is good on one major issue (auditing the legislature) but if a voter performed a deeper look at where she stands on the rest of the key policy issues, they will conclude that she is a big red Thumbs Down NO- on 99% of key issues. As a legislator, she talked a good game, had a smiling pretty face, but voted against taxpayers, voted to enable #childsacrifice of preborn imagebearers, refused to stand up against illegal immigrants, gun-grabbers or other socialists. We believe voters should stop viewing her as a Moderate Democrat given that she sought the endorsement of Progressive Massachusetts for her 2022 statewide campaign to serve as State Auditor of Massachusetts |

We wish the political principals that make up the RNC, the various state parties, media outlets, PACs, consulting firms, and other influencers with bigger platforms than ours had taken the time to warn us that Trump was content to acquiesce to increased debt and federal spending instead of promoting him intensely and disfellowing people for trying to audit Trump when he fails to live up to the conservative values that they claim to hold. We previously scored Trump as No on this metric as the 2017 federal tax reform legislation is not enough to offset the impact of tariffs and higher federal spending. Trump signed the (2017 Federal Tax Reform legislation) which cut taxes by nearly $1.5 Trillion over 10 years (good) but (which partially offset the benefits of the tax cuts on income (imposed tariffs) and signed spending bills that increased annual federal spending by $808.1 Billion (20%) in FY 2020 versus what Trump inherited in FY 2017 , of which $627 Billion (78%) went to underwrite priority Democrat programs (social programs and non-defense discretionary programs). This has resulted in federal debt increasing (by $3.3 Trillion since his inauguration) (bad 3X). Moreover, his 2021-2030 budget proposals (from his first term) are projected to add another $1.85 Trillion in annual spending relative to 2020 and $5.6 Trillion in new federal debt, before even taking into account spending to combat the Wuhan plandemic. Trump also flirted with raising the federal gas tax by $.25/gallon in 2018, at least that idea did not go anywhere, so far. We downgraded him to NO- in 2020 when considering the soaring spending and debt in response to the plandemic. Hopefully, the new DOGE (Department of Governmental Efficiency) will prompt Congress to pass legislation that REDUCES spending and President Trump uses his bully pulpit as President of the United States to obtain fiscally conservative legislation from Congress that reduces spending, reduces taxes and reduces debt. | |
We previously scored Trump as a Both-Maybe on this metric based on his issuance of DTM 19-004, which bans new #FakeGender applicants who have any history of so-called transgender medical transition treatment and opposing the misleadingly-named Equality Act, which passed the U.S. House but will likely fail to pass muster with the GOP-majority in the U.S. Senate. However, we had to downgrade Trump to Down-NO after considering his overall body of work on this issue and that the GOP itself issued a press release promoting Trump's record promotg the sexually abominable (per Leviticus 18:22). Alabama abolitionist Bill Fortenberry wrote on Facebook that he thought about publishing an article to warn Republicans about Trump's pro-homosexual record, but the GOP beat him to it. Trump has done more to promote homosexuality than any Democrat president. His actions have caused irreparable harm to the moral fabric of our nation, and the GOP is proud of that. Another factor in our No score was his recent remarks where he submitted to judicial tyranny on the recent Bostock v. Clayton County court decision (which subjects employers who fire their poorly performing homosexual employees to potentially expensive and frivolous lawsuits), acquiescing to the idea of a homosexual president, praising India's Bollywood for releasing its first movie promoting homosexuality and appointing the avowed homosexual and known Swamp Creature Richard Grenell as his acting Director of National Intelligence. Trump was a long-time supporter of the #RainbowJihad going back to at least 1999, Trump expressed his opinion that the homosexual marriage cases have gone to the Supreme Court. They have been settled. And I'm fine with that, Trump was the first GOP President to express support for "LGBT Pride Month", the Trump campaign has been selling LGBT-oriented campaign material for years, Trump appointed five homosexual ambassadors and two homosexual Judges (Mary Rowland and Pat Bumatay) and the Trump Administration is leading a global campaign to decriminalize homosexuality in the 69 countries where it is currently illegal. Trump even retained Obama's "anti-LGBT discrimination" Executive Order for federal employees and renominated Lesbian Activist Chai Feldblum to serve as Commissioner of the EEOC. Trump had two Good Actions and 13 Negative Actions pertaining to this metric. Traditional moral values voters can rely on Trump 14% on the time on this issue. No wonder why the Log Cabin Republicans (a homosexual-oriented Republican group) endorsed his reelection campaign. We downgraded Trump to NO- (NO Negative, our lowest score) when Trump hosted the RNC LGBT Pride Coalition in conjunction with the Log Cabin Republicans at his Mar-A-Lago Resort in 2021 and 2022. At least Trump gave moral values voters a #LimitedHangout this year by signing Executive Orders recognizing only two genders (male and female), Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation, and Keeping Men (especially hormonally manipulated and genitally mutilated men) Out of Womens Sports. | |
Our standard for a YES+ rating at WikiVote on Right to Life is for the immediate abolition and recriminalization of abortion, not to make exceptions for it or to regulate it. Donald Trump floated the idea of criminalizing abortion in 2016 (good) but almost immediately walked it back (bad). Given that Donald Trump is "pro-life with exceptions" and does not support criminalization of abortion, the best we could score him as Maybe on this issue. Donald Trump opposed the Alabama Abortion Ban in Name Only law (because he felt it was too strict). We thought the Alabama law was a loophole ridden sieve that created a de facto right for women to engage in Do-It-Yourself chemical abortions via mifeprex and would have preferred the law be modelled on the OK or TX Abolition of Abortion bills. Trump signed spending bills that resulted in abortuary operators receiving $1.5 Billion in cumulative taxpayer funding during his administration, including signing one month before appearing at the March for Life (bad), which takes a lot of the shine off Trump being the first president to address the March For Life in person and contradicts the "the most pro-life president ever" rhetoric of the Pro-Life Establishment. We think that we are being generous scoring Trump, especially given that The American Right To Life and its affiliate ProLifeProfiles.com gave Trump their lowest score (Tier 4-Personhood Never) given his long and documented record of supporting the killing of preborn image bearers, because his Supreme Court picks were soft-left judicial supremacists who believe "Roe v. Wade was settled law" and because Planned Parenthood and other abortuaries (still receive federal tax dollars), even after PP withdrew from the Title X program when the Trump Administration reformed the Title X program's rules. We understand Trump being the first president to speak at the March for Life indicates that he needs the pro-life vote, but Trump has not achieved much as far as pro-life policy goes. The National Right to Life PAC and its affiliates endorsed Trump because they were pleased with his Supreme Court picks, his support for the #regulationist Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act and because he made statements expressing support for ending taxpayer dollars being used to underwrite abortuaries and opposing late-term abortion. Unfortunately, we cannot ignore that abortions performed by abortion conglomerate Planned Parenthood and governmental funding of PP has actually increased under Trump's presidency. At least it is better than his March 2016 comments about "millions of women being helped by Planned Parenthood" or his interview with Tim Russert in which he said he was "pro-choice in every respect". Nevertheless, Donald Trump fails to meet our standard for YES+ or even basic Yes because he does not support criminalization of abortion to establish equal protection of preborn and born and because he is pro-life with exceptions. Our grade for Trump is generous in comparison to what the Abolitionist group Free The States would have given him (as they would have given him a F-). We downgraded his score from Maybe to No in January 2024 when Trump campaigned to the left of DeSantis on abortion in the 2024 primary after blaming pro-lifers for the disappointing electoral performance achieved by the Republican Party in 2022. We downgraded Trump again in July 2024 from No to NO- when we learned of his involvement in eliminating the pro-family and pro-life planks of the 2024 RNC Party Platform. We noted that | |
From National Review "Trump has two entirely contradictory instincts when it comes to gun laws, and he does not reconcile them particularly well. Trump simultaneously wants to be seen as doing something about mass shootings and wants to keep the support of the NRA and gun owners. This is not a needle he can thread." The Trump Administration banned Bump Stocks in the wake of the October 2017 Las Vegas Shooting. In early 2018, Trump said "Take the guns first. Go through due process second," "I like taking the guns early" at a White House event in response to the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Trump called for red flag laws, aka Extreme Risk Protection Orders, which violate gun owners' due process as well as their right to keep and bear arms. This forced Gun Owners of America to warn Trump that he might lose support from gun owners and RKBA activists. The Tenth Amendment Center recently published an article on how federal gun control laws violate the Constitution and our Natural RIght to Keep and Bear Arms, yet the Trump Administration has actually stepped up such persecutions to levels well in excess of the Obama Administration's last year. We noted that the NRA endorsed Trump, but we also noted that Dudley Brown of the National Association for Gun Rights was one of the earliest people to recognize that the NRA has been AWOL from the fight for decades and that Trump turned against gun owners after the Las Vegas shooting. After taking a second look at Trump on gun rights in 2024, we maintain our No score. We know he said positive things about gun rights to the Gun Owners of America at their August 2024 inaugural Advocacy and Leadership Summit, but the leftist actions and rhetoric from Trump as President has to outweigh what candidate Trump said, even after taking into account the July 2024 assassination attempt. To paraphrase what the later Editor of Virginia Right! Tom White once said, there is nothing more conservative than a Republican running to get into office and nothing is more liberal than a republican once he gets into office and that unfortunately applies to Former President Trump. We believe that Trump's appearance at the August 2024 GOA event was an effort to try to make up for the GOP diluting its stance on gun rights and moral issues from its party platform. At least Trump issued an Executive Order directing the Attorney General to examine all orders, regulations, guidance, plans, international agreements, and other actions of executive departments and agencies (agencies) to assess any ongoing infringements of the Second Amendment rights of our citizens, and present a proposed plan of action to the President, through the Domestic Policy Advisor, to protect the Second Amendment rights of all Americans. | |
Although the immigration enforcement and reform by reduction group NumbersUSA gave Trump a B grade on immigration for his four years serving as President, we scored him as Maybe. The Trump administration built 458 miles of border wall (but only 52 miles were in places where they was no previous wall) before a court order blocking further construction of the wall. He signed a memo directing the Department of Commerce to not include illegal aliens in the 2020 Census results. What keeps Trump from earning a Yes or YES+ score is that he campaigned on getting Mexico to pay for building a border wall between Mexico and the U.S. but failed to keep his promise as he had to resort to transferring taxpayer funds originally appropriated for military construction and counternarcotic operations. Trump also floated the idea of a path to citizenship for illegal aliens in the DACA program in July 2020 (bad). Trump also proposed amnesty deals in 2015, 2018 and 2019. NumbersUSA President, Founder and all-around Immigration Hawk Roy Beck wrote about how the Trump amnesty-for-wall trade would once again reward previous immigration lawbreakers without preventing future immigration lawbreakers. Former Trump supporter Ann Coulter turned on Trump after realizing that Trump campaigned as an immigration enforcement hawk in 2016 but blew off his campaign promises after getting elected. JULY 2024 UPDATE, we downgraded his score to No from Maybe when we learned about his cockamamie proposal to give green cards to all foreign students who graduate from U.S. Universities. DECEMBER 2024 UPDATE, Trump proposing a DACA amnesty deal one month after winning reelection to serve again as President validated our July 2024 decision to downgrade the Enforce Borders Metric to No from Maybe. While we noted the pro-immigration enforcement Executive Orders issued by President Trump in the first month of his second term, we and other immigration enforcement advocates are disappointed with the miniscule number of illegal aliens arrested since his inauguration. | |
We scored Trump as NO- on this metric: The negative impact of Trump's actions that increased the size, scope and cost of government outweigh the positive impact of the Trump Administration's actions that reduced the role of government. The irrational exuberance of Donald Trump towards promoting the experimental COVID-19 jab gave the left the opportunity to implement jab mandates. The decision of Donald Trump to promote lockdowns in the name of 15 days to stop the spread of COVID-19 gave license to states to amplify and extend these terrible policies, to governors to wield unprecedented and draconian executive powers. Furthermore, the decision to replace real world economic activity with governmental stimulus during the lockdowns sowed the seeds for the worst inflation in 40 years. Trump signed spending bills that saddled our federal republic with $7.8 Trillion of new public debt between his inauguration and now and his future budget proposals will result in $13.1 trillion in new cumulative debt (2017-2030), signing the globalist USCMA "trade deal" which contains at least 57% of the text of the globalist TPP agreement, subordinates U.S. law to foreign law and promotes integration of the U.S. into regional North American governmental units, was negotiated by globalist CFR member Robert Lighthizer and gained the approval of the globalist CFR head Richard Haass and of the globalists at Bloomberg.com, raising the minimum age to smoke cigarettes to 21, establishing a new paid/family leave benefit for federal bureaucrats and advocating for a new paid family medical leave welfare state benefit. Trump also signed the 2018 First Step Act, which Daniel Horowitz of Conservative Review has referred to repeatedly as the jailbreak bill for releasing dangerous criminals back on the street and adding to the cost of government. A reader sent us an email claiming Trump eliminated the CAFE standards (fuel economy mandate) but a closer glance at the Trump Administration's new CAFE rule shows that Trump increased the mandated fuel economy levels relative to the end of the Obama Administration though it at least increased it at a slower rate than Obama by freezing the 2020 MPG requirement from 2020 to 2026. Trump also banned bump stocks (footnote 5). Trump's August 2020 Executive Order directing the Treasury to spend money not appropriated by federal law to pay extended unemployment benefits violated the taxation and spending clause of Article One of the U.S. Constitution. Trump's 2018 Syrian airstrikes violated Article One, Section Eight, Clause Eleven of the Constitution which reserve power to declare War to Congress. We noted some good things in this metric such as the Trump regulatory reforms, the Trump Administration approving the T-Mobile acquisisition of Sprint after the Obama Administration stonewalled it. Trump earned a B grade from NumbersUSA (footnote 5) despite maintaining Obama's illegal and unconstitutional DACA Amnesty. Trump also withdrew the U.S. from the Iran deal and the Paris Climate Accord, though the latter withdrawal will not take effect until after the 2020 election. | |
Trump disparaging Ron DeSantis as Ron DeSanctimonous is inexcusable given that DeSantis spent his term as governor achieving conservative policy victories whereas Trump tweeted good rhetoric as President but turned his presidential policy making over to his leftist daughter and son-in-law. Other actions that earned Trump a NO- score include endorsing Kevin McCarthy for Speaker against the 20 House Holdouts in 2023 and Ronna Romney McDaniel against Harmeet Dhillon for 2023 RNC Party Chair, calling for conservative stalwart Tom Massie to be thrown out of the GOP in retaliation for Massie demanding a roll call vote on the $2 trillion stimulus package in response to economic shutdown mandates in the wake of the communist virus plandemic, commuting the sentence of the crooked former Democrat Governor of Illinois Rod Blagoyavich and his appointment of 2 homosexual judges, 5 homosexual ambassadors (see note 6) as well 6 Democrats and one left-of-center "independent" to his administration. Mr. Trump gave nearly $1.5 Million to candidates and causes according to the FEC. However, since his 2017 inauguration, he endorsed the ethically challenged RINO Luther Strange over the pro-family challenger Roy Moore in the 2017 U.S. Senator from Alabama primary or even the fiscally conservative Rep. Mo Brooks from the House Freedom Caucus, the RINO Hackette Cindy Hyde-Smith (35% Liberty Score) against the anti-establishment conservative challenger Chris McDaniel in the 2018 U.S. Senator from Mississippi primary, the father of socialized healthcare Mitt Romney against his conservative challenger Mike Kennedy 2018 U.S. Senator from Utah primary, the RINO Incumbent Markwayne Mullin (63% Liberty Score) against his abolitionist challenger Joseph Silk in the 2020 OK-2 Primary, the flip-flopping challenger Katie Arrington against the House Freedom Caucus Incumbent Mark Sanford 93% Liberty Score. In 2022, he endorsed the RINO Swamp Creature Katie Britt against the House Freedom Caucus member Mo Brooks. Other RINO Swamp Creatures Trump endorsed in intraparty spills include Tommy Tuberville against Jeff Sessions, Paul Cook (39% Liberty Score), Dan Donovan (26% Liberty Score), Kay Granger (43% Liberty Score), David Kustoff (56% Liberty Score), Buddy Carter (52% Liberty Score), and John Cox. He even appointed six Democrats to his administration and the Federal Reserve as well as his left-wing Independent in Name Only son-in-law Jared Kushner. He did support House Freedom Caucus member Ron DeSantis for FL Governor against his RINO opponent in 2018 and conservative favorites Kris Kobach and Foster Friess in their unsuccessful gubernatorial campaigns. | |
DeCoste earned an average score of 85% from 2015-present (from MassFiscalScorecard) and 100% from (Citizens for Limited Taxation during the 2016 and 2018 legislative sessions. However, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call 351) led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+. We pondered downgrading his fiscal score from Yes to Maybe in 2019 in response to his co-sponsored the streaming services tax but retained his Yes score in response to his active efforts against the TCI Tax, his vote against the gas tax increase, his vote against S2500/H4912, which included a new Carbon Tax and his 2020 signing of the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge. In the 2023-24 legislative session, we were concerned about his co-sponsorship of the 2023 Streaming Services Tax H74 and his vote for the bloated FY 2024 spending bill, which results in him breaking the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge, but noted that he was one of four legislators to vote against the bloated Democrat spending binge known as the FY 2025 budget and that he voted for a $700 Million/year tax cut package in 2023. JANUARY 2025 UPDATE, We downgraded his score from Yes to Maybe when we learned that he ENDORSED the 2025 South Shore Technical Debt Exclusion Tax Increase even though the estimated cost to Norwell, Rockland, Hanover and Hanson taxpayers exceeded that of the 2013-14 automatic gas tax proposal | |
We had to downgrade the values voter scores of Rep Boldyga, Rep David DeCoste and Rep Berthiaume from Yes to Maybe when they signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette, which came as a surprise since DeCoste got a perfect score on the 2014 VoteCoreValues Questionnaire and voted the right way against pro-homosexual legislation. In 2024, he co-sponsored the parent consent for sex education bill, even if it had no chance of passing but voted for the parentage bill in 2024 (not good, based on the legislative analysis of the bill by the Massachusetts Family Institute) Hence, our Thumb Up/Thumb Down_Maybe-Mixed Score. | |
We previously scored DeCoste as Yes on this issue as he earned an endorsement from MCFL in his (2014), (2016) & (2018) campaigns. However, we recently downgraded him to Maybe after carefully considering his March 2019 vote to provide state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities and his July 2018 vote for the NASTY Women Act (Roll Call 409), which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts. We noted his opposition to the ROE Act, and the abortion and sex change sanctuary bill which kept him at a Maybe score instead of a No or NO-. | |
Reps DeCoste, Frost, Muradian and McKenna earned an A rating from (Gun Owners Action League), but voted for the 2017 Bump Stock Ban (H3951, Amendment 1). This led us to score them as Yes instead of YES+ | |
DeCoste donated to conservatives like Duncan Hunter and Avi Nelson in their intraparty contests and supported McMahon against Brown in the 2020 Special State Senate Primary, Tom Keyes against Xiarhos in the 2020 State Rep Primary and Diehl against Lindstrom/Kingston in the 2018 U.S. Senate race (good) but he did support Charlie Baker against Scott Lively in the 2018 gubernatorial primary (bad). In the contested State Committee Man races, he endorsed the reformer Steve Fruzzetti in the Norfolk, Bristol & Plymouth race (February 2020 Boston Broadside, Page 6 Print Edition), then endorsed his Establishment-backed opponent Myles Heger a few weeks later. When our Co-Founder asked DeCoste about it, he said he did not realize that they were running against each other for the same seat. He also endorsed the Ethically Challenged Establishmentarian Matt Sisk against his reform-oriented, service-over-self-enrichment challenger Stephen Tougas, which surprised us considering that Sisk endorsed David's Establishment-backed opponent Lou Valanzola in the 2014 5th Plymouth State Rep Primary. UPDATE, December 2022: We had to downgrade the Supports Others score of David DeCoste to No from Maybe because although he voted for Diehl and Allen for the gubernatorial ticket at the MassGOP Convention, his signature on the letter defending the failed electoral record of the Establishment-backed Massachusetts Republican National Committee Man Ron Kaufman and his signature on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette outweighed those votes. Update: October 2024, after a recent discussion by our board regarding the review of his score, we had to maintain the No score due to the inclusion of new pro-Establishment actions in Intraparty Matters, including but not limited to donating to the Establishment-backed fiscal liberal John Marsi against the grassroots-backed David Adams in the 6th Worcester Primary in 2024, running against the grassroots-backed Joe Bronske for State Committee Man in the 2023 Special First Plymouth & Norfolk Caucus Election, endorsing the 2024 reelection bid of Establishment-backed State Committee Woman and National Committee Woman Janet Fogarty against her grassroots backed opponent Lynne Santangelo, tag-teaming with the Establishment-backed State Committee Man and State Rep Paul Frost to lead the opposition to the pro-grassroots resolution against legislative informal sessions sponsored by the grassroots-reformer State Committee Woman Kathy Lynch and his reaction to MassResistance Executive Director Brian Camenker asking him why he did not support the efforts of the grassroots to try to repeal the legislative informal sessions. He also endorsed the UniParty liberals Amy Carnevale and Brad Jones for Reelection as MassGOP Party Chairwoman and House GOP Leader (respectively) against their reform-oriented challengers. Given his coalescing with the Establishment since November 2022, it is no wonder why the Chief Propagandist of the MassGOP Establishment Howie Carr endorsed his reelection bid for State Committee Man in 2024. | |
We found it inexplicable that Sweezey attended the first meeting of the Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston. At least they gave him a shiny, shiny swag pin | |
Sweezey supported the high-energy moderate Geoff Diehl against his low-energy RINO opponent Chris Doughty, but supports the low-energy Establishment RINO Jesse Brown for Congress against his anti-establishment primary opponent Dan Sullivan. We recently downgraded his score to No when we learned beyond a reasonable down that the Establishment coalesced around his campaign for State Rep in 2024 over the Jim Lyons-MA Freedom Slate-backed candidate Jane Cournan was ideologically similar to him | |
Ronald Reagan once said that his 80% ally was not his 20% enemy. Unfortunately, Mr. Wong failed to meet the Reagan 80% plumbline when it came to voting on fiscal issues as his career MassFiscalScorecard score is 76% and ranged between 66% and 88% during his tenure serving as a state rep. Probably explains why he did not sign the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge and why he voted for the Community Benefit Districts (aka the Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362)) , the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call Supplement 351 and the Grand Legislative Tax Increase House Roll Calls Supplement 381 and 382 in the 2018 legislative session. Wong even co-sponsored the Netflix Tax in the 2019-20 Legislative Session. | |
Rep. Wong has two good votes, his 2011 vote against the bathroom bill and his 2016 vote against the bathroom bill on this metric. However, we previously scored him as No-Thumb Down due to his opposition to the socially conservative language included in the 2014 MassGOP Platform and his votes for the 2018 and 2019 votes to ban Reparative Therapy. We further downgraded his score to Thumbs Down_NO- (NO Negative) due to his sponsorship of the graphically invasive sex-ed curriculum. | |
We previously scored him as Thumb Down-No due to his opposition to the socially conservative language included in the 2014 MassGOP Platform. We downgraded his score to Thumbs Down_NO- due to his co-sponsorship of the 2019 House version of the Doctor-Assisted Death bill. We are aware he also co-sponsored H3320 (the house version of the ROE Act, aka the Infanticide Bill) before writing to the clerk to request the removal of his name as a co-sponsor (#BlessHisHeart) in response to pressure from the activists of the Renew Massachusetts Coalition. Nevertheless, his co-sponsorship of the Doctor-Assisted Death bill, as well as his 70% Planned Parenthood Score and his votes to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638, for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) keep him at NO-. | |
Reps Wong, Vieira and Ferguson voted for the Big Three Gun Grabs passed by the legislature since the beginning of 2014 (the 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab, the 2017 Bump Stock Ban and the 2018 ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab). At least they voted against the 2023 H4135/H4885 Gun Grab. | |
Wong voted against Lyons's 2018 immigration enforcement amendment. At least he voted against giving illegal aliens drivers licenses in 2022. | |
Based on Wong voting for tax increases (footnote 15), his votes to ban Reparative Therapy (footnote 16) his awful gun rights score (footnote 18) and his vote against the Lyons immigration enforcement amendment (footnote 19). | |
Boldyga earned an average score of 88.8% from MassFiscalScorecard MassFiscalScorecard during the last six legislative sessions. However, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+ and resulted in him violating the Taxpayer Protection Pledge he signed with the Americans for Tax Reform. | |
Boldyga mistakenly voted for the 2019 counseling ban at the first roll call, but corrected his vote during the second roll call vote. We appreciate it when a politician realizes his mistake and corrects it. Boldyga also voted against the 2011 and 2016 Bathroom Bills as well as the 2018 counseling ban (good). However, we had to downgrade the values voter score of Boldyga and Berthiaume from Yes to Maybe when they signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette. Boldyga sponsoring a bill to decriminalize MDMA (ecstasy) and magic mushrooms is another head-scratcher. Other 2024 moral values actions from Boldyga include co-sponsoring the parental notification for sex education bill, even if it had no chance of passing but voted for the parentage bill in 2024 (not good, based on the legislative analysis of the bill by the Massachusetts Family Institute). Hence, our Thumb Up/Thumb Down_Maybe-Mixed Score for Boldyga and Berthiaume. | |
Boldyga has only one bad vote on abortion since he began serving as the 3rd Hampden District's State Representative but that vote was for the 2018 NASTY Women Act, which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts. Boldyga voted against the ROE Act, the New Buffer Zone Law and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State bill. Boldyga would have earned a Yes score if he voted against the NASTY Women Act and a YES+ score if he endorsed anti-establishment pro-life challengers in intraparty primaries instead of pro-abortion establishment-backed favorites (footnote 26). We recognize MCFL has endorsed him, but we cannot give that much regard MCFL and its parent National Right to Life OPPOSE the recriminalization of abortion, which prevents the restoration of equal justice and protection for preborn with born. See the original open letter their president signed opposing all Abolition of Abortion bills that include recriminalizing the mothers who participate in abortions. | |
From Vote Smart) Boldyga voted against the 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab and the 2017 Bump Stock Ban (good), but voted for the 2018 DeLeo-Decker ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab and the Supplemental Budget containing the Linsky Bump Stock Ban Amendment (bad). | |
Boldyga has an 89% MassFiscal Scorecard score (not withstanding his votes for two small tax increases) and voted against the anti-family, draconian Reparative Therapy Ban (good) but voted for the NASTY Women Act and ERPO Gun Grab (bad) (See (footnotes 21, 22, 23 & 24) | |
In Intraparty contests, Boldyga has endorsed a number of high-energy moderates (such as Rick Green for MassGOP Chairman in 2013 and Geoff Diehl for U.S. Senate in 2018) against their low-energy Establishment RINO opponents (somewhat good) but has also endorsed his share of Establishment RINOs from the Democrat Wing of the Party (such as Mitt Romney against Rick Santorum or Ron Paul in the 2012 Presidential primary, Don Humason against Mike Franco in the 2013 Special State Senate Election primary (see OCPF donations below), Susie Whipps against Karen Anderson in the 2014 MassGOP 2nd Franklin State Rep primary and Charlie Baker against Scott Lively in the 2018 gubernatorial primary). Boldyga also gave $200 to Baker in 2015 (see OCPF link below) one year after he defeated the anti-establishment conservative Mark Fisher (bad). Boldyga and his wife also gave $1,900 to candidates and causes (other than his own campaign) according to the OCPF. | |
County Commissioner Valanzola has served since January 2021 and in that time, annual spending by Plymouth County has declined by 20% from Fiscal Year 2021 to Fiscal Year 2025 on a reported basis. Furthermore, annual underlying spending by Plymouth County from FY 2021 to FY 2025 adjusted for non-recurring contributions to the Plymouth County Retirement System, the OPEB Liability Trust Fund and its Reserve Funds in FY 2021 only increased by 14.6% cumulatively (3.46% compounded annual growth rate), which was below the rate of inflation (20.3% cumulative, 5.3% CAGR) as measured by the CPI. We also recognized that the Plymouth County CARES Act grant overhead administration costs were only 1%, well below other jurisdictions and that he served as an Area Coordinator for Norwell and Rockland during the Tank the Automatic Gas Tax Repeal effort in 2013-14. What kept him from earning a YES+ score was his enthusiastic support for the 2009 Rockland debt exclusion tax increase and his support for fiscally irresponsible UniParty politicians in contested intraparty elections (31). On one of his JV Team Radio Programs in March 2025, Valanzola did recognize the Town of Carver for its efforts to build key infrastructure projects without resorting to override and debt exclusion tax increases thorugh proactive fiscal oversight of their town budget. Plymouth County taxpayers should hope that Valanzola and the rest of the County Commissioners in the remaining county governmental units are successful in their efforts to try to increase the share of 64D deeds excise tax revenue that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts remits to the counties (an issue brought up on his radio program after the 2024 election) as the Plymouth County principals (Department Heads, County Commissioners and Advisory Board) do a better job of managing their countywide budget than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and its principals manage their statewide and agency budgets, especially if the counties use the incremental funds in order to accelerate paying down their respective underfunded retirement liabilities. | |
We are surprised that Valanzola is a supporter of the LGBTQ-oriented Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston group given that he received a Catholic parochial high school education and serves as the Grand Knight of the Rockland Knights of Columbus and given that homosexuality conflicts with Catholic religious doctrine. We were not surprised that the Sodomy Club of the #MessGOP endorsed him in his 2024 reelection. At least we can verify that he is heterosexual by virtue of him mentioning how he asked the singer Rihanna to give him her hand in marriage on a radio program he co-hosted and asked the actress Sydney Sweeney for a date after she broke up with a previous ex. | |
Rating Valanzola on the Right to Life/Abolishing Abortion metric requires this footnote because our stance on abortion is in line with the Abolitionist/Equal Justice position of groups like Abolitionists Rising, Equal Protection for Posterity and Abolish Human Abortion, which is markedly different from the regulationist position on abortion held by Massachusetts Citizens for Life, National Right to Life, Students for Life of America and other #ProLifeIndustry operative groups. We are aware that Valanzola is a friend of #ProLifeIndustry operative Chanel Prunier from her days with the Massachusetts Young Republicans and received a recommendation from MCFL when he first ran for State Representative in 2010 based on his 100% score achieved on the 2010 MCFL Candidate Questionnaire. However, MCFL, NRTL and SFLA endorsements carry less weight with us since May 2022 when we learned that those groups OPPOSED Equal Justice legislation because they objected to the provision that subjected the parents-to-be of an aborted baby to criminal charges of homicide, even taking into account that such legislation does not pursue retroactive prosecution of parents who aborted their preborn children before the date the proposed legislation would have taken effect and even though their position creates a de facto legalization of do-it-yourself abortion. Based on his remarks made on his September, 11, 2024 JV Team Radio Program, we concluded that Valanzola is pro-life with exceptions (life of mother, rape and incest) but would not support abolitionist legislation that recriminalizes all methods of abortion and subjects all participants in an abortion (including the parents to be) to criminal charges of homicide. We also believe that if the old VoteCoreValues website, where one of our Co-Founders served on its board 10 years ago was scoring Valanzola on this metric, their principals would have used litmus test scoring to score him as a No-Thumb Down by virtue of his endorsements of pro-abortion bureaucrats like Matthew Sisk (2020) and Sean Powers (2024) against their full-platform pro-life/abolitionist grassroots conservative activist opponents (Stephen Tougas in 2020, Steven Fruzzetti in 2024) in their respective contested State Committee Primaries. An example of a candidate earning a YES+ score on the life metric would be Oklahoma State Senator Pastor Dusty Deevers, who has been an uwavering voice for the abolition of abortion as a pastor and in service to the people of Oklahoma as their State Senator from the 32nd District. An example of a political principal (politician or media personality) earning a Yes score on the life issue would be Steve Deace of Blaze Media, who co-founded Personhood Iowa to advocate for abolitionist legislation in Iowa, but who also has supported regulationist legislation such as heartbeat bills. We sent Valanzola our questionnaire and three of our board members (including an influential pastor who lives in the largest community in the county) tried to contact him in good faith to see where he stood on the life, immigration and role of government issues, but he did not answer our candidate questionnaire nor did he reply to our emails. | |
We would have been able to avoid using this footnote to score Valanzola if he had not been terminated for cause in 2016 from his appointed state job with the DCR for attempting to coerce Cynthia Lewis to influence her fiance not to run for political office against former GOP State Senator Donald Humason and if he did not blame everyone but himself for his termination. Although an internal investigation showed no conclusive evidence that DCR Chief Operating Officer Michael Valanzola (cousin of Jared) sought retaliation against Lewis, his resignation was "necessary to restore confidence in the human resources function for the secretariat," the Baker administration said in a statement. We ended up scoring him as a maybe on this metric as we noted that underlying spending by Plymouth County grew at a slower rate than inflation (footnote 27) and Valanzola is pro-gun rights, though medical freedom voters would be concerned that he and the other Plymouth County Commissioners voted to provide monetary incentives to Plymouth County employees to take the experimental and misleadingly named COVID-19 vaccines. We sent him our questionnaire and three of our board members (including an influential pastor who lives in the largest community in the county) tried to contact him in good faith to see where he stood on the life, immigration and role of government issues, but he did not answer our candidate questionnaire nor did he reply to our emails. | |
Rating Valanzola (and most Republican candidates) on this metric requires this footnote. We know that Jared is a lifelong Republican activist, the Plymouth County GOP Vice Chairman, a former Rockland RTC Chairman and a longtime official and current National Committee Man of the MA Young Republicans. We also recognize he donated ~$3,600 to state GOP candidates as reported to OCPF and $745 to federal GOP organizations as reported to the FEC, his willingness to get involved and manage the post-primary state representative campaigns of his 2010 primary opponent Korey Welch (who later became his best friend and co-host of the JV Team Radio Program) and the 2014 primary opponent (David DeCoste) of his father Louis. We also recognize his aforementioned friendship with former MA GOP National Committee Woman and center-right political influencer Chanel Prunier (as referenced in (29) and that he also hosted former grassroots-leaning MA GOP Chairman James Lyons twice in February 2019 one month after Lyons won an upset victory against the Establishment-backed candidate Brent Andersen. However, we also noted that in the contested intraparty elections, he is more likely to support the liberal-Establishment-backed candidate against their more conservative grassroots-aligned candidate, examples include supporting Matthew Sisk and Sean Powers against Stephen Tougas and Steven Fruzzetti (as referenced in (29), Susan Williams Gifford against John Gaskey in the 2024 2nd Plymouth State Representative Primary, Mathew Muratore against Kari MacRae in the 2024 Plymouth & Barnstable State Senatorial Primary ( (67), Charlie Baker against Mark Fisher in the 2014 Gubernatorial Primary and Michael Valanzola against James Ehrhard in the 2014 Worcester Hampden, Hampshire & Middlesex State Senatorial Primary. | |
Frost earned an average score of 81.5% from MassFiscalScorecard (2013-present). However, he ran against the anti-establishment, reform-oriented former Worcester RCC Chairman Jim Knowlton for State Committee in 2020 and the anti-establishment, reform-oriented Grafton RTC Treasurer Jim Davidson in 2024 and his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 resulted in him violating his ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge, forcing us to score him as Maybe instead of Yes. His co-sponsorship of the the streaming services tax reinforced our decision to score him as Maybe on this metric as did his votes for the bloated FY 2024 spending bill and the bloated FY 2025 spending bill. | |
Frost earned a Thumb Down_No when he voted for the 2016 Bathroom Bill and the 2018 and 2019 Reparative Therapy Ban bills. He earned a further downgrade to Thumbs Down_NO- (NO Negative) when he voted forH5090, the Abortion and Sex-change Export and Sanctuary Act and signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette | |
We're trying to figure why Mass Citizens for Life endorsed Frost for reelection in 2018 and scored him as Pro-Life considering that he did vote to legislatively decriminalize abortion when he voted for the NASTY Women Act Roll Call 409. At least MCFL adjusted the score to Mixed with a D grade in 2022 when he voted for the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Bill. | |
Frost earned an A rating from (Gun Owners Action League), but voted for the 2017 Bump Stock Ban (H3951, Amendment 1). This led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+. | |
Frost would have earned a Yes or YES+ on immigration from us based on his four good votes against providing taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens but his vote against the 2018 Lyons Immigration Enforcement Amendment dropped him down to Maybe/Mixed, plus we do not know where he stands on other immigration issues such as DACA, H1Bs, legal immigration quotas etc even though he serves a Republican State Committee Man. We dropped his score to No in October 2024 when we learned that he voted for the FY 2024 budget, which included subsidized college tuition for illegal aliens as well ashis 2018 vote to block an amendment to withhold state funding to Sanctuary Cities (Roll Call 335)and he co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens). | |
Frost earned a No score primarily for his 2006 vote for the RomneyCare socialized healthcare program. Other votes resulting in him earned a No score on this metric include his violating the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge (footnote 32), his votes for the Reparative Therapy Bans (footnote 33), his vote for the Bump Stock Ban (footnote 35), and his vote against the Lyons Immigration Enforcement Amendment (footnote 36). | |
As a legislative candidate, Dooner signed the No New Taxes Pledge and campaigned on tax cuts and cutting wasteful spending, including a proposal to cut property taxes by freezing property (valuation) assessments. As a Taunton City Councilor, she voted for soaring spending budgets, voted to put the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase on the ballot and endorsed the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase multiple times on Facebook. When it came to pay raises for politicians, she voted for the pay raise for the mayor in 2022, but voted against the pay raise for the City Councilors, which means that she is all things to all people on politician pay raises. At least she supported Q1 (ballot petition enabling the Office of the Massachusetts State Auditor to audit the legislature), even though the legislature and other state government agencies are already audited annually by a top 10 public accounting firm (CliftonLarsenAllen) as well as other auditing firms. We noted that she worked with Taunton Mayor Shaunna O'Connell in doubling the Senior Tax Credit, though we also have to note that such programs effectively end up incrementally bump up the property taxes of non-senior taxpayers in communities where the property tax levy is at the Prop 2.5 levy limit. Nevertheless, we would have scored her as a Yes if the Taunton General Fund budget increased at a rate comparable to the rate of inflation AND if she had fought against the debt exclusion tax increase, but her votes for the soaring municipal spending budgets and the debt exclusion override tax increase cap her score at Maybe at this time. Our Co-Founder reached out to her on Facebook regarding her property tax reform proposal and her fiscal record as a Taunton City Councilor in which he expressed that seeing the debt exclusion tax increase and the soaring spending budgets were an unpleasant surprise to taxpayers, but also encouraged her to take initiative to lead opposition to state level spending budgets that increase each and every year at the statewide level when they come up for a vote now that she won election to serve in the MA State Senate. APRIL 2025 UPDATE, we had to downgrade her score from Maybe to No when we learned that she did not support reforming the Medicaid program (even after the program saw massive spending increases through the years) in an interview with WCVB. | |
Kelly Dooner is an admirer of the homosexual Taunton City Councilor Jeff Postell and liked Alex Hagerty's post heralding the return of the LGBTWTF-Oriented Log Cabin Republicans of Massachusetts as an organized political chapter group. Probably explains why she liked how the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed the homosexual congressional candidate J.P. Moran and the reestablishment of the Massachusetts Chapter of the Log Cabin Republicans. We downgraded her score from No to NO- in 2024 when she liked the pro-homosexual social media posts of State Rep Marcus Vaughn and she likedthe op-eds of Alex Hagerty and received an endorsement from the Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston. | |
Based on Dooner's answers to NewBostonPost. We can see she opposes the gruesomely brutal "practice" of late-term abortion however she seems to lean towards acquiescence to court-mandated decriminalization of abortion. This is a markedly disappointing contrast to what we learned about abortion and the courts from the Boston Broadside and VoteCoreValues Founder Lonnie Brennan, American Right to Life and the abolitionists at Free the States, who have written extensively as to why the first step towards abolishing abortion was ignoring Roe and defying judicial tyranny. Like most Republican candidates, Dooner's website says nothing about where she stands on abortion. Our 2020 score for Dooner on abortion is confirmed for 2024 based on her answers to the abortion question at the Taunton Community Access & Media State Senate Candidate Forum, specifically when she said she opposed late-term abortion but opposed a six-week ban on abortion (such as the new Florida law) and she had "no desire to change� the current laws in the state (regarding abortion). | |
Dooner gave time, talent and treasure to the Massachusetts RINO Governor Charlie Baker's gubernatorial (reelection) campaign. Probably explains why Baker endorsed her 2020 State Rep campaign and her 2024 State Senate campaign. She also voted for the Establishment-backed Chris Doughty/Kate Campanale gubernatorial ticket against the Diehl/Allen ticket at the 2022 convention. We recognize that she serves on the board of a party-chartered organization (the Massachusetts Young Republicans), but our standard to earn a Yes/YES+ score on this metric requires a candidate to support conservative candidates in contested intraparty elections against their liberal UniParty Establishment-backed opponents. | |
Timilty used to be a reliable moral values conservative (as measured by VoteCoreValues) when serving as a State Representative, but since he first ran for State Senate, he has voted for the Bathroom Bill (House Roll Call 276), the Gender-Bending Drivers Licenses (S2203), the Reparative Therapy Ban and the obscenely graphic sex-ed curriculum and |
|
We previously scored Timilty as YES-Thumb Up because he maintained a near perfect voting record with Massachusetts Citizens For Life from 1999 to 2017. We downgraded Timilty to Maybe (Thumb Up/Thumb Down) when we learned that he earned a B+ from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). We noted he at least refrained from co-sponsoring the ROE Act and voted against providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities. We are pleased to share that MCFL recently downgraded him from Pro-Life in their 2018 legislative scorecard to Mixed in their 2020 legislative scorecard. We downgraded him to No-Thumb Down in 2022 when he voted for the abortion and sex change sanctuary bill. | |
We previously scored Valanzola as a Yes-Thumb Up on immigration enforcement primarily based on his remarks about illegal immigration on his radio program. However, we had to adjust his score as a Maybe when we learned he endorsed two Establishment Republican State Reps (Susan Williams Gifford and Mathew Muratore) who voted against immigration enforcement amendments litmus tests. We see him as opposing open-borders BidenVasions vomited up by a Democrat, but supportive of controlled doses of amnesty by a Uniparty good-ol-boy who affixed the #MagicR after his name. | |
We know that Gaskey is personally pro-life from his candidate questionnaire response and from conversations we had with him, but given his support for Donald Trump (who moved the GOP leftward on the life issue) and the fact that his campaigns have not publicly articulated what he would try to do on the life issue, we conclude at this time that he is not likely to sponsor or champion legislation that will abolish abortion by reestablishing equal justice for preborn and born. In a conversation with Gaskey about what he would try to do on the life issue, he recited the usual #ProLifeIndustry #regulationist legislation. When our Co-Founder asked him why he did not plan to file legislation to recriminalize all methods of abortion, and subject all participants in an abortion to charges of first degree homicide, he declined to do so out of fear of the Democrats even though he was running in a Safe Republican (R+10) District which gave 63% of their vote to the GOP U.S. Senate nominee Scott Brown in 2010. Gaskey reinforces why MFI Director Ron Barndt only gives his money to candidates who put that they are pro-life on their website and what they plan to do to try to regarding abortion matters, and why we have been working to implement his plumbline for scoring candidates, even when the candidates are in the unique position of being popular with Jim Lyons and the Boston Broadside. Gaskey also reinforces the merits of the 2018 #MakeThePledge Campaign initiated by abolitionist activist Pastor Rusty Thomas. | |
McKenna earned an average score of 87% from MassFiscalScorecard (MassFiscalScorecard) since he began serving as a state rep. However, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call 351) led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+. Nevertheless, even though he lives in a Deep Red District, his constituents and fiscally minded voters should expect him to sign the No New Taxes Pledge before he pulls papers to run for his next term. February 2025 UPDATE, we downgraded his Fiscal Grade to Maybe when we learned that he did not take a public stand against the 2022 Webster Debt Exclusion tax increase and voted for the bloated FY 2024 and FY 2025 spending budgets proposed by left-wing ideologue Democrat Governor Maura Healey and the left-wing ideologue Democrat-controlled House of Representatives. | |
His archived campaign website said nothing about moral issues and said that "social issues were settled law" ( in a 2014 interview with Hank Stolz) (fecklessly bad) but has at least voted against the bathroom bill and the (counseling bans) since his 2014 election (good). He voted against the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State Bill (good) but signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette. In 2024, he co-sponsored the parent consent for sex education bill, even if it had no chance of passing but voted for the parentage bill in 2024 (not good, based on the legislative analysis of the bill by the Massachusetts Family Institute) Hence, our Thumb Up/Thumb Down_Maybe-Mixed Score. | |
His campaign website says nothing about where he stands on abortion and said that "social issues were settled law" ( in a 2014 interview with Hank Stolz). Since his 2014 election, pro-lifers should be displeased he voted for the 2018 NASTY Women Act (which codified state level decriminalization of abortion in MA) (but has voted for a number of incrementalist fig leaves to regulate abortion and also voted against the latest abortion expansionist legislation (ROE Act and Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State) (Hence our Mixed Score) | |
McKenna voted against the Jim Lyons 2018 immigration enforcement amendment (amendment 347, House Roll Call 334 and will vote to permit tuition subsidies (per his answer to the 2014 MFI Voter Guide) (aka in-state discounted tuition rates) to illegal aliens provided they register in MA and pay their taxes 2014 MFI Voter Guide full responses. We bumped him up to Maybe in 2022 because he voted against giving Drivers Licenses to Illegal Aliens but dropped him back to No in October 2024 when we learned he co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens). | |
McKenna earned a high MassFiscalScore (not withstanding his votes for two small tax increases in 2018 and voting for bloated spending budgets in FY24 and FY25 (46)) and gun rights (not withstanding his vote for the Bump Stock Ban) (somewhat good), but scored lukewarm on immigration enforcement (49) (bad). | |
McKenna endorsed the reformer Steven Fruzzetti in the Norfolk, Bristol & Plymouth State Committee Man race (February 2020 Boston Broadside, Page 6 Print Edition) (good) but endorsed the Establishmentarian State Committee Man Ryan Chamberland against his reform-oriented challenger Kevin Powers, the Establishment RINO Charlie Baker for Governor against Scott Lively and the Hillman-Valanzola State Committee Ticket in 2016 against the reform slate of Bill Gillmeister and Chanel Prunier's mom Ronna (bad 2x). UPDATE, December 2022: We had to downgrade the Supports Others score of Joe McKenna to NO- from No in light of his signature on the letter defending the failed electoral record of the Establishment-backed Massachusetts Republican National Committee Man Ron Kaufman and his signature on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette | |
Vieira, Howitt and Ferguson voted against Lyons's 2018 immigration enforcement amendment. At least they voted against giving illegal aliens drivers licenses in 2022. We downgraded them from Maybe to Thumb Down-No when we learned that abouttheir 2018 vote(s) to block an amendment to withhold state funding to Sanctuary Cities (Roll Call 335) and they co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens). | |
Blog post from Weymouth community activist Bob Montgomery Thomas highlighting how Mariano lives the high-life on his campaign finance account. Yes folks, he is living living La Dolce Vida while his constituents struggle economically (due to his rubber stamping of every new tax, every bloated spending bill, every imprudent bonding bill and every draconian productivity retarding regulatory bill that #BaconHill vomits up as well as his donations to candidates who support such economically destructive legislation). | |
We previously scored Ayers as Yes-Thumb Up because he voted against the abortion buffer zone bills. We downgraded Ayers to Maybe in 2020 when we found that he earned a B+ from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). We downgraded him to NO- (Thumbs Down, NO Negative) in December 2020 when he voted for the ROE Act and the Abortion Sanctuary bill in 2022. We disagreed with MCFL scoring him as Pro-Life in their 2018 legislative scorecard and were glad they corrected it in their 2022 scorecard. | |
The Late Rep. Miceli was an old-school, pro-life Catholic Democrat. Unfortunately, his legislative aide and successor David Robertson clearly tries to be all things to all people on this issue as evidenced by his July 4, 2018 interview with the Wilmington Apple. Of course, such #doublemindedness would not be complete without the obligatory kowtow to judicial supremacy. We disagreed with MCFL scoring him as mixed on this issue in 2020, but we appreciate them changing their score from Pro-Life in 2018 to mixed after we alerted them to Robertson's interview. Robertson voted against the ROE Act in 2020, but voted for the budget bill containing the ROE Act. Robertson voted for the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Bill in 2022 and that prompted MCFL to score him as F-Supports Abortion in 2022. | |
Although MCFL endorsed Justin Thurber, we also noted that MCFL President Myrna Maloney Flynn signed on to the letter written by the major #ProLifeIndustry operatives OPPOSING all abolitionist legislation in response to the Louisiana Abolition Bill because they objected to the provision recriminalizing abortion. Our Co-Founder contacted Justin Thurber and his campaign manager Jim Davidson and shared with them information about abolitionist legislation to reestablish equal protection for preborn and born but have not seen evidence that is something they will commit to. | |
We have no idea how Senators Rodrigues and Moore received a B grade from Gun Owners Action League in 2018 (down from A+ in 2014) considering they voted for the Big Four Gun Grabs passed by the legislature since the beginning of 2014 (the 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab, the 2017 Bump Stock Ban, the 2018 ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab). and the 2023 H4139 (AKA the Lawful Citizens Imprisonment Act). At least the national affiliate of GOAL (the NRA) gave Rodrigues and Moore a 0% F Grade in 2024 because of their aforementioned votes for the 2023 H4139 Gun Grab law. | |
Tarr earned a 63% MassFiscalScorecard score in the 2019-20 legislative session, a 57% score in the 2017-18 legislative session and a 74% cumulative score from 2013-2022. Tarr also voted for the 2018 Grand Legislative Tax Increase, the 2018 Car Rental Tax. Tarr even voted for the 2020 Carbon Tax. Yes, the GOP State Senate Floor Leader joins the Democrats in voting for higher taxes, spending and borrowing. No wonder why the Democrats don't bother to run anyone against him. | |
Tarr voted against the January 2007 Marriage Amendment and voted against the June 2007 Marriage Amendment. Tarr also voted for the #FakeGendered Drivers Licenses, the obscenely graphic sex-ed curriculum and did nothing to stop the Reparative Therapy ban. He also condemned the conservative Catholic State Committee Woman Deborah Martell for speaking out against the sexually abominable behavior of MA-2 Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa Paquette. It is no surprise that the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed his campaign in 2024. | |
Tarr voting for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) probably explains how he scored a 70% from #PlannedMurderhood in 2018. Tarr also voted for the (2014 New Buffer Zone Law) as well as co-sponsored the (Original 2007 Buffer Zone Law). Since he did not co-sponsor the the NASTY Women Act and voted against the ROE Act, we score him as Thumb Down_No instead of Thumbs Down_NO- | |
Tarr voted against the Drivers Licenses for Illegal Aliens and voted against(Roll Call 394 of Senate Bill 4 the 2018 Sanctuary State Amendment to the FY2019 budget (good 2x) but we downgraded his score to Maybe in January 2023 when we learned he supported drivers privilege cards for illegal aliens (bad) and when he voted to override former MA Governor Mitt Romney's veto of the MassHealth Immigrant Eligibility provision in the 2006 Romneycare socialized healthcare law (bad). We downgraded him to No in October 2024 when we learned that he co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) despite the grandiose promises of Uniparty politicians. | |
Based on Tarr's mediocre MassFiscalScorecard scores (footnote 58), his co-sponsorship of the 2007 Original Buffer Zone Law (footnote 60), his votes for the Big Four Gun Grab bills (footnote 57) and his 2006 vote for the RomneyCare socialized healthcare program. | |
We originally scored Velis as No on fiscal issues in 2018, but downgraded him to NO- for his co-sponsorship of the carbon tax. His remarks about being a fiscally conservative Democrat are grossly misleading given that he voted for the 2018 Neighborhood Tax, the Car Rental Tax and his average MassFiscalScorecard score is about 16.75% (which means he votes to increase the size, scope and cost of government 83.25% of the time since he first began service in the legislature). We note he donated to Tank the Automatic Gas Tax , voted against the 2020 Gas Tax Increase (which bumped his MassFiscalScorecard score to 26% in that session) and earned a 36% score from MassFiscalScorecard in his first legislative session. However his MassFiscalScorecard scores for the 2016 legislative session was 3% and 2% for the 2018 legislative session plus Velis did not oppose the 2020 Gas Tax Increase when the MA House Committee on Ways and Means (of which he serves as a member) sent it to the full MA House of Representatives. We were surprised Velis voted against the Class Envy Tax (aka the Millionaires Surtax) and considered bumping him back to No but decided to maintain our NO- when we found he co-sponsored H2810 (the Carbon Tax). Either way, it is no wonder why many at a recent Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts meeting were pleased their beliefs were closer, if not identical to those held by Velis. | |
Velis earned a 100% score on #PlannedMurderhood's 2018 candidate scorecard, a B Grade from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts for his votes for the PATCH Act and the ACCESS bill and voted for the 2014 New Buffer Zone Law. We're wondering why the Billion Dollar abortuary conglomerate rated him as one of their Allies instead of one of their Champions, especially since he voted to give them state aid to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. Maybe he didn't sponsor enough pro-death legislation? As a member of the Joint Committee on Health Care Financing during the 190th Legislative session, he voted for the 2018 NASTY Women Act, which legislatively decriminalized the murder of #prebornbabies in Massachusetts. Our board and many in our audience were stunned that MCFL previously scored him (and other similar solons) as pro-life considering his website says NOTHING about right to life, that he scored 100% from #PlannedGenocide and was rated as one of their Allies and voted to legislatively decriminalize abortion in Massachusetts. Fortunately, MCFL made the necessary corrections to his Stance on Abortion score around March 20, 2020 and now scores him as Anti-Life/Supports Abortion. We were also surprised that Democrats for Life endorsed him and would like to know what their methodology was for endorsing him. At least he is against accelerating abortion in MA by opposing the ROE Act (so far), which keeps him at No instead of downgrading him further to NO-. Nevertheless, it is no wonder why many at a recent Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts meeting were pleased their beliefs were closer, if not identical to those held by Velis. | |
Velis voted against the 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab (good) H4376, but voted for the 2018 ERPO Gun Grab H4517, the 2017 Bump Stock Ban and H4139 Gun Grab (bad) (bad). We think the NRA lives up to their reputation for Negotiating Rights Away by endorsing him and giving him an A- score. August 2024 UPDATE, we downgraded his score to NO- when we learned he voted for H4885, aka the 2024 Lawful Citizens Gun Grab and Imprisonment Act. No wonder why many at a recent Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts meeting were pleased their beliefs were closer, if not identical to those held by Velis (we probably could have downgraded him to NO- in December 2019 when he was chumming up to the Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts, but we gave him a little grace for voting the right way on the 2014 gun grab.) | |
Velis voted against the 2018 Lyons Immigration Amendment, (bad), but voted against giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens (good). We downgraded him to NO- in October 2024 when we learned about his 2018 vote to block an amendment to withhold state funding to Sanctuary Cities (Roll Call 335) and that he co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) despite the grandiose promises of Uniparty politicians. Immigration enforcement minded voters in the Hampden & Hampshire State Senate district will need to make sure that Velis makes future immigration votes in the interests of Americans as opposed to those at the Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts given how many were pleased their beliefs were closer, if not identical to those held by Velis when he met with them for his initial State Senate campaign. In hindsight, we could have scored him as NO- on this metric back in 2019 when we considered that so many members of the Progressive Democrats of Massachusetts were pleased at how Velis shared so many of their values. | |
From Vote Smart, Zlotnik voted against the original 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab Bill (good) but voted for the conference committee bill (bad). Zlotnik voted against the 2018 DeLeo-Decker ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab (good) but voted for the 2017 Bump Stock Ban (bad). At least Zlotnik voted the right way on the 2023-24 Lawful Citizens Imprisonment Act Gun Grab, even if we know he was playing the #FailureTheater game. | |
Rating Vaughn on fiscal matters requires this footnote because the candidate figured out how to be all things to all people on this metric. Vaughn earned a 75% score from MassFiscalScorecard. We applied more grace to how candidates voted on the 2023 tax cut law than MassFiscal, as they treated it as a bad vote because of the negative changes to the 62F law whereas we recognized that the legislation, albeit flawed, cut income and corporate taxes by $700 Million and included investor friendly tax cuts such as a cut in the short-term capital gains tax and a cut in the estate tax. However, Vaughn failed to sign the Taxpayers Protection Pledge from Americans for Tax Reform, voted for the bloated FY 2024 spending budget and the FY 2025 bloated state spending budget and co-sponsored the streaming services tax, which resulted in a Maybe/Mixed score. | |
Rating Vaughn on moral values requires this footnote because the candidate figured out how to be all things to all people on this metric. Vaughn gave good answers to a questionnaire issued by a local conservative Republican chartered organization, but is a known ally of the Log Cabin Republicans, a homosexualist special interest group who serve as a Fifth Column to interject homosexual issues into the GOP and undermine the nominally pro-traditional moral values stance of the Republican Party and its principals Vaughn attended the 2022 and 2023 Holiday Parties hosted by the LCRs, endorsed the homosexual activist Alex Hagerty for State Committee Man in the 2024 primary election and made a social media post on behalf of homosexual relationships in June 2024. | |
Rating Vaughn on right to life requires this footnote because the candidate figured out how to be all things to all people on this metric. Vaughn gave good answers to a questionnaire issued by a local conservative Republican chartered organization but expressed support for early-term abortion in another questionnaire from another PAC. | |
Rating Vaughn on right to life requires this footnote because the candidate figured out how to be all things to all people on this metric. Vaughn gave good answers to a questionnaire issued by a local conservative Republican chartered organization but expressed support for gun control measures in another questionnaire from another PAC. | |
We previously scored Donato as Thumb Up-Yes because he voted against the abortion buffer zone bills. We downgraded Donato to Maybe when we found that he earned a B from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) and because he voted for providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities. Donato voted against the ROE Act in 2020 but voted for the abortion sanctuary state bill in 2022. Nevertheless, We disagreed with MCFL scoring him as Pro-Life in their 2018 legislative scorecard but at least they adjusted it to Mixed in 2022. | |
Dooner scores well on gun rights and imigration enforcement, but her support for the 2023 Taunton Debt Exclusion tax increase and the soaring spending in the Taunton Budget as referenced in footnote 38 should concern fiscally minded and limited government oriented voters. Her voting for the development project of a politically connected developer who sold her an investment property for $100,000 below its assessed value raised eyebrows. At least sheresigned from serving as a Taunton City Councilor and Planning Board member after winning election to serve as State Senator for the Third Bristol & Plymouth District instead of double-dipping otherwise we would have scored her as NO-. | |
Ronald Reagan once said that his 80% ally was not his 20% enemy. Unfortunately, Mr. Vieira's voting record on fiscal issues fails to meet the Reagan 80% plumbline. Vieira's MassFiscalScorecard score is currently a cumulative average of 78% and ranged between 67% and 96% during his tenure serving as a state rep. Vieira signed the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge, but violated it in 2018 when he voted for the Community Benefit Districts (aka the Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362)), the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call Supplement 351 and the Grand Legislative Tax Increase House Roll Calls Supplement 381 and 382 in the 2018 legislative session. Vieira even co-sponsored the 2019 Netflix Tax. We wish ATR and CLT would have called him out for violating his pledge. We suspect they gave him a mulligan because he affixed the #MagicR after his name. | |
We scored Vieira as Thumbs Down, NO- based on his co-sponsorships of the 2018 and 2019 Reparative Therapy Bans. Vieira also co-signed a letter with the rest of the Cape Cod Legislative Delegation that called for Barnstable County Commissioner Ron Beaty to resign when Beaty asked if homosexual politicians were too self-absorbed and self-centered to adequately represent ALL of their constituents in a fair and equitable manner. | |
Vieira scored 70% from Planned Murderhood in the 2018 legislative session based on his votes for the ACCESS Act, the PATCH Act and the NASTY Women Act (which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts). Vieira also voted to give them state aid to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. | |
By virtue of his aforementioned votes (See footnotes (18), (51), (74), and (75)) for the Grand Legislative Tax Increase, the unconstitutional Reparative Therapy Ban, the ERPO Gun Grab, the Bump Stock Ban and against Lyons's immigration enforcement amendment. | |
Marsi campaigned against the burdensome tax and spending regime vomited up by the Bacon Hill Democrat Supermajority Government (good) but presided over soaring spending growth during his time on the Dudley Board of Selectman (bad). | |
Fiscally minded voters should have preferred it if Sullivan-Almeida had signed the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge. Nevertheless, Sullivan did score an 87% from MassFiscalScorecard in her first six years and voted against the Gas Tax and Climate Tax bills. Her co-sponsorship of the the streaming services tax caps her score at Yes and prevents us from scoring her as YES+ at this time. JANUARY 2025 UPDATE, We downgraded her score from Yes to Maybe when we learned that she ENDORSED the 2025 South Shore Technical Debt Exclusion Tax Increase even though the estimated cost to Abington and Whitman taxpayers exceeded that of the 2013-14 automatic gas tax proposal. | |
Sullivan-Almeida voted for the 2019 Reparative Therapy Ban. We suspect this was because her former campaign manager and Best Friend Forever Alex Hagerty is openly homosexual. Given that she is a lace-curtain Irish Catholic from the Irish Riviera, we think she should know better than to enable Hagerty promoting his sexually abominables for Trump posts. She voted against the abortion and sex change (good) but signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette and the first meeting of the Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston | |
Sullivan-Almeida's website says nothing about abortion. We know MCFL endorsed her in 2018, but MCFL's plumbline is #AndThenYouCanKillTheBaby abortion regulations, whereas our plumbline is the abolition and recriminalization of abortion (which MCFL opposes). We know she voted against the ROE Act and the abortion sanctuary bill and sent her a questionnaire to see if she supported establishing equal protection for preborn and born, in order to see if she would earn a Yes or YES+ rating, but we received no reply. | |
Sullivan-Almeida's co-sponsorship of the streaming services tax (79) and vote for the anti-constitutional Reparative Therapy Ban bill (80) brings her Limited Government Score to Maybe in 2020 from Yes in 2018. | |
We previously scored Rush as Yes-Thumb Up because he maintained a near perfect voting record with Massachusetts Citizens For Life from 1999 to 2017. We downgraded Rush to Maybe (Thumb Up/Thumb Down-Maybe) because we recently found that he earned a B- from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his co-sponsorship of the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), his vote for the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) and we saw no opposition from him on the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act). We noted he at least refrained from co-sponsoring the ROE Act and was on reserve duty during the vote to provide state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities. Nevertheless, We disagreed with MCFL scoring him as Pro-Life in their 2018 legislative scorecard but were encouraged that MCFL scored him as D-Mixed in 2022 when he voted for the Abortion Sanctuary bill. | |
Voters should not be surprised that Kane voted for S2500, which included a new Carbon Tax considering she did not sign the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge and considering she served as the strategist for the 2014 Shrewsbury pro-override tax increase campaign, as well as served as an officer with two other pro-override tax increase campaigns. Other tax increases she voted for or co-sponsored include the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 and her co-sponsorships of the Netflix Tax. We'll give her a #BlessHerHeart for earning an 80% MassFiscalScorecard for her #FailureTheater votes. She must have been one of the few Republicans we can think of who had nothing on fiscal issues on her campaign website or her reelection website. | |
Kane voted for the 2016 Bathroom Bill and the 2018 and 2019 Reparative Therapy Bans. She earned a downgrade from No-Thumb Down to Thumbs Down_NO- (NO Negative) when she signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette and voted forH5090, the Abortion and Sex-change Export and Sanctuary Act. | |
Kane earned a 65% score from #PlannedMurderhood in the 2017-2018 legislative session for her votes for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act), the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). Kane also voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when she voted for H3638. We score her as No instead of NO- because she voted against the ROE Act, though she did vote for the budget bill containing the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State bill. | |
Kane voted for the Bump Stock Ban and the ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab as reported by Vote Smart. At least she voted against the 2023-24 Gun Grab, otherwise she would have earned a NO- score. | |
By virtue of her votes to raise taxes (84), the Reparative Therapy Bans (85) and her gun-grab votes (87) | |
O'Connor scored 84% from MassFiscalScorecard in the 2021-22 legislative session but 47% in the 2020 session and 40% in the 2016 and 2018 legislative sessions. O'Connor's first vote as a State Senator in May 2016 was in favor of forwarding the Class Envy Tax to the General Election Ballot. O'Connor voted for it again in June 2017, June 2019 and June 2021. Other tax increases O'Connor voted for include the 2018 Grand Legislative Tax Increase, the 2018 Car Rental Tax and the 2015 Weymouth Override. O'Connor was the only Republican candidate that the Massachusetts AFL-CIO endorsed in 2020 and 2022. | |
In an October 2015 interview with the Statehouse News Service, O'Connor expressed his support for gay marriage. As a legislator, he voted for the #FakeGendered Drivers Licenses, the obscenely graphic sex-ed curriculum and voted to ban Reparative Therapy. He even voted to retain the Bathroom Bill in the 2018 general election (Ballot Question 3) and condemned the conservative Catholic State Committee Woman Deborah Martell for speaking out against the sexually abominable behavior of MA-2 Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa Paquette. It is no surprise that the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed his campaign in 2024. | |
In an October 2015 interview with the Statehouse News Service, O'Connor tried to be all things to all people. O'Connor described himself as a social progressive with cross-party views on a lot of issues. O'Connor said he was personally pro-life but supported a woman's right to choose. This #DoubleMindedness and his co-sponsorship of the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) probably explains how he scored a 60% from #PlannedMurderhood in 2018. In the 2019-20 legislative session, he voted for providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities. We'll give him a #BlessHisHeart for opposing Doctor-Assisted Death and for not sponsoring the ROE Act (aka the Infanticide Bill), which keeps him at Thumb Down-No instead of dropping him all the way down to Thumbs Down NO- (NO Negative). We still wonder why MCFL scored him as pro-life in the past and why they endorsed him in 2022 even after they scored his voting record as mixed with a C- grade. | |
O'Connor voted for the 2017 Bump Stock Ban and the 2018 ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab). He also endorsed the pro-gun grab Charlie Baker against his pro-gun rights hawk opponent Scott Lively in the 2018 #magov #magop primary. At least he voted against the 2023-24 Gun Grab, otherwise we would have to score him as NO- instead of No. | |
Although O'Connor expressed opposition to the Sanctuary State bill (aka the misleadingly-named Safe Communities Act) and voted against giving Drivers License to Illegal Aliens (good), we scored him as Thumb Down-No because he voted against a 2007 Weymouth Ordinance proposal recognizing property owners and employers who refrained from renting to or hiring illegal aliens (bad) and expressed support for providing more for those who are here undocumented, including a pathway to citizenship. Numerous immigration enforcement advocates such as NumbersUSA, ALIPAC and the late Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum have warned us that a pathway to citizenship is a euphemism for amnesty for illegal aliens. This candidate validated our decision to downgrade his Enforce Borders score from Maybe to No years ago when we learned in October 2024 that he co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) | |
We previously scored O'Connor as No-Thumb Down based on his mediocre MassFiscalScorecard score, his votes for the Class Envy Tax, the 2018 Grand Legislative Tax Increase, his support for the unconstitutional, anti-family Reparative Therapy Ban, his vote to ban plastic grocery bags (Roll Call 150), his double-mindedness on immigration enforcement and his votes for the Bump Stock Ban and the ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab. We recently downgraded him to Thumbs Down NO- (NO Negative) based on his co-sponsorship of the House version of the Plastic Bag Ban and because he co-sponsored both the House and the Senate 100% Renewable Energy Bills which forces utilities to replace their reliable sources of electricity with costly, unreliable and misleadingly-named renewable energy. | |
We previously scored Durant and Orrall as a Yes-Thumb Up on this metric for voting against the drivers licenses for illegal aliens bill, but We downgraded them to Maybe in October 2024 when we learned that they co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) despite the grandiose promises of Uniparty politicians. We know Durant has immigration enforcement advocate Holly Robichaud serving as his campaign consultant and we know he campaigned against the immigration surge that took place under MA Governor Maura Healey, but given the recent development that he and Orrall co-signed a letter advocating for amnesty, we have no choice to conclude that they figured out how to be all things to all people on this metric. | |
Rogers previously earned a Yes score on Right to Life because he voted against the NASTY Women Act, the ROE Act, the New Buffer Zone Law and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Act. However, we downgraded his score to Maybe in November 2022 when he failed to oppose H5374, the supplemental spending bill that contained a $1 Million earmark (page 29) for a smear campaign to attack crisis pregnancy centers and pregnancy resource centers and because of his 2007 vote for the original Buffer Zone Law. | |
We previously scored Garry as Thumb Up-Yes given that she was one of 9 legislators to vote against the 2018 NASTY Women Act, which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts. We know Garry has received numerous endorsements from Massachusetts Citizens for Life. However, our decision to downgrade her to Thumb Up/Thumb Down-Maybe and created this footnote was when we learned she served on the board of Democrats for Life, which joined National Right to Life and MCFL in writing the May 2022 open letter opposing all Abolition of Abortion bills that include recriminalizing the mothers who participate in abortions when Louisiana proposed such legislation. She failed to oppose H5374, the supplemental spending bill that contained a $1 Million earmark (page 29) for a smear campaign to attack crisis pregnancy centers and pregnancy resource centers | |
According to Vote Smart, Garry had three pro-gun rights votes and two anti-gun rights votes. Pro-Gun Rights votes include her 2008 vote to reduce Firearm licensing fees, her 2018 vote against the Red Flag ERPO Gun Grab and her 2023 vote against H4885, the Lawful Citizens Imprisonment Act. Anti-Gun Rights votes include her 2014 vote for the DeLeo-Peterson gun grab and her 2017 vote for the Bump Stock Ban | |
We previously scored Pease as Maybe because we recognized that he was endorsed by MCFL in 2022 and or 2024 and or got a perfect score on the abortion questions as measured by the Renew MA Voter Guides. However, despite multiple attempts to reach the candidates, we were not able to determine if they supported an abolition of abortion bill, a bill that would reestablish equal protection for preborn and born by recriminalizing all methods of abortion and all participants to the abortion, including the parents to be. Furthermore, rating those candidates requires this footnote because none of those candidates have made public statements against #ModernDayChildSacrifice (aka abortion) in their campaign platforms. To potentially earn a YES+ or even a Yes score, we look for candidates who have taken a public stance on reestablishing equal justice and protection under the law for preborn and born. Our stance on abortion is in line with the Abolitionist/Equal Justice position of groups like Abolitionists Rising, Equal Protection for Posterity and Abolish Human Abortion, which is markedly different from the regulationist position on abortion held by Massachusetts Citizens for Life, National Right to Life, Students for Life of America and other #ProLifeIndustry operative groups. While we will include references to endorsements by MCFL, NRTL, SFLA and other pro-life groups in our footnotes, we will have to stress to our viewers that MCFL, NRTL and SFLA endorsements carry little to no weight with us since May 2022 when we learned that those groups OPPOSED Equal Justice legislation because they objected to the provision that subjected the parents-to-be of an aborted baby to criminal charges of homicide, even taking into account that such legislation does not pursue retroactive prosecution of parents who aborted their preborn children before the date the proposed legislation would have taken effect and even though their position creates a de facto legalization of do-it-yourself abortion. We recently downgraded him from Maybe to No when we learned in 2024 that he supported Doctor-Assisted Death/Doctor-Prescribed Suicide. | |
Silvia previously earned a Yes score on Right to Life because he voted against the NASTY Women Act, the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Act. However, we downgraded his score to Maybe in November 2022 when he failed to oppose H5374, the supplemental spending bill that contained a $1 Million earmark (page 29) for a smear campaign to attack crisis pregnancy centers and pregnancy resource centers and because of his 2014 vote for the new Buffer Zone Law. | |
We noted that Thurber scored well on the 2022 Renew MA Candidate Questionnaire (good) but were surprised that he liked the new 2024 GOP Platform, which diluted the pro-family, pro-life platform planks (not good). OCTOBER 2024 UPDATE: We downgraded the Moral Values Voter Score earned by Justin Thurber from Maybe to NO- when we learned that the Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston (aka the Sodomy Club of the #MessGOP) endorsed his campaign. | |
Fattman earned a 100% Score from Citizens for Limited Taxation and a career MassFiscalScorecard rating of 87% but voted for the 2018 Car Rental Tax (Senate Roll Call 446). This led us to score him as 'Yes' instead of "YES+". FEBRUARY 2025 UPDATE we downgraded his Fiscal Grade to Maybe when we learned that he and the rest of the UniParty MA Senate Republicans joined with the hard-left ideologue Democrat Governor Maura Healey and the hard-left ideologue Democrat-controlled MA Senate to vote for the bloated FY 2024 and FY 2025 spending budgets. | |
Five days after Fattman got elected, he declared that he had no qualms with gay marriage in an interview with Yvonne Abraham of The Boston Globe-Democrat. Fattman voted against the 2011 and 2016 Transgender Bathroom Bills and voted against the Graphic Sex Education Curriculum but did not oppose the 2018 and 2019 Reparative Therapy Bans and voted for the transgendered 3rd gender drivers license bills S2562 in 2018 and (S2203) in 2020. He also condemned the conservative Catholic State Committee Woman Deborah Martell for speaking out against the sexually abominable behavior of MA-2 Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa Paquette. It is no surprise that the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed his campaign in 2024. | |
Five days after Fattman got elected, he declared that he was antiabortion personally but would not act to limit choice in an interview with Yvonne Abraham of The Boston Globe-Democrat. Probably explains why he voted to legislatively decriminalize abortion in Massachusetts in 2018. Fattman also voted for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Bill) and we saw no opposition from Fattman to the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act). We disagree with the MCFL scoring Fattman as pro-life given the aforementioned data we recently discovered. We recognize he voted against the 2014 New Buffer Zone Law and against providing state taxpayer dollars to replace the elimination of Federal Title X funds to abortuaries. He voted against the ROE Act, but voted for the budget bill containing the ROE Act. He voted for the original abortion and sex change sanctuary bill (not good), but voted against the conference report (good), which resulted in him being able to please all the people all the time on those votes. | |
Fattman was a member of GOAL and the NRA and voted against the 2014 DeLeo-Pederson Gun Grab as a State Rep (good). As a State Senator, he voted for the Bump Stock Ban and the ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab (Bad). At least he voted against the 2023-24 gun grab legislation, otherwise we would have to score him as No instead of Maybe. In addition to Fattman, Representatives Lombardo, Howitt, Jones, Boldyga, Zlotnik & Smola all voted against DeLeo-Peterson and the 2023-24 gun grab legislation, but voted for ERPO and either the Bump Stock Ban Amendment or the H3951 supplemental budget, which contained the Bump Stock Ban Amendment. | |
Fattman scored well on immigration and taxes (good), but voted for the 2018 ERPO Gun Grab 105 (bad) | |
Endorsed Baker against Lively in 2018 as did every other legislator, tried to talk Mark Fisher out of running against Baker in the 2014 GOP Gubernatorial Primary , endorsed Marco Rubio for President against Rand Paul and Ted Cruz in 2016, endorsed John Kingston for Senate against the High-Energy Moderate Geoff Diehl in 2018. We noted his letter for endorsing the high-energy moderate Rick Green against Hughes in 2013 for MassGOP Chairman, which kept him from a NO- (NO Negative). | |
We scored Rep. Durant as a Maybe/Mixed on fiscal stewardship. When it comes to state-level fiscal issues, Durant earned an average MassFiscalScorecard score of 84% from 2013-22 (good). When it comes to municipal fiscal issues, he co-sponsored a bill (S1703) to increase the local option meals tax and endorsed multiple override tax increases and oversaw 70% spending growth during his tenure (1999-2011) as a Spencer Selectman and Finance Committee Member (bad). Nevertheless, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 resulted in him violating the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge he took early on in his career. Then again, given that he divorced his wife to take up with his former legislative aide and colleague (Rep.) Kate Campanale, it is not like honouring vows, oaths and pledges is a priority for Rep. Durant. | |
Our scores reflect not only how a person conducts themselves when it comes to votes, public statements, answers to questionnaires but also how they conduct themselves. While Rep. Durant may have voted against the latest mutations of the #RainbowJihad (good), we have to score him as a No-Thumb Down on this issue in light of the circumstances involving his divorce. We wish someone would ask him how he went from campaigning as a family man on his campaign website to getting divorced, having to move out of his house and taking up with his former legislative aide and state rep colleague Kate Campanale, especially given that he is old enough to be her father. Our No Rating is reinforced in June 2021 when he authored the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when she spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette and he appeared at the August 2022 meeting of the Log Cabin Republicans (when Kate spoke at that group), which is a well-known 5th Column Trojan Horse that seeks to interject homosexualist activism into the GOP. Durant himself earned a NO- score when the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed his campaign in 2024. | |
We previously scored Rep. Durant as Yes because MCFL endorsed Rep. Durant in his previous campaigns and because NARAL and #PlannedGenocide don't like Durant for co-sponsoring a bill (H936) to regulate abortion in the 2018 legislative session. However we have to score him as Maybe on this issue given that he voted for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act, Roll Call 279) and he voted for the NASTY Women Act (Roll Call 409) in the 190th (2017-18) legislative session, which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts and which paved the way for the ROE Act, aka the Infanticide Bill. We noted he voted against (Roll Call 34) providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activitie, voted against the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State bill, which collectively kept him at a Maybe score instead of a No or NO-. Nevertheless, Reps. Berthiaume and Durant reinforce why MFI Director Ron Barndt only gives his money to candidates who put that they are pro-life on their website, and why we have been working to implement his plumbline for scoring candidates. | |
Reps. Berthiaume and Durant both earned endorsements from Gun Owners Action League and the NRA. In 2017, they voted against the Linsky Bump Stock Ban Amendment (Roll Call 269), but ended up voting for the supplemental spending bill that contained the Bump Stock Ban Amendment (Roll Call 270). For this reason, we score them as Yes instead of YES+. Their votes against the ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab helped solidify their Yes score. | |
Durant made favorable statements pledging allegiance to the Constitution on his campaign website About Rep. Durant (good) but did co-sponsor H696 (2013 plastic bag ban) (bad). Durant has a good overall record on gun rights but did vote for the supplemental spending bill with the bump stock ban amendment in it 111. Durant has a solid 84% MassFiscalScorecard score on statewide fiscal votes (good) but a horrific fiscal record pertaining to municipal finances plus he is in violation of his ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge (bad 2x) 108. For these reasons, we scored his as Maybe/Mixed. | |
Muradian earned an average score of 76.7% from MassFiscalScorecard MassFiscalScorecard falling just short of the Reagan 80% Plumbline. Voters should not be surprised that Muradian voted for S2500, which included a new Carbon Tax considering he did not sign the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge. Other tax increases he voted for or co-sponsored include the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 and his co-sponsorships of the Netflix Tax and an increase in the Registry of Deeds surcharge to provide more money for the Community Plundering Act boondoggle | |
Muradian voted for the 2016 Bathroom Bill and the 2018 and 2019 Reparative Therapy Bans. He also signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette and voted forH5090, the Abortion and Sex-change Export and Sanctuary Act. | |
Muradian earned a 65% score from #PlannedMurderhood in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his votes for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act), the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). Muradian even voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. He voted No on the ROE Act, but voted for the budget bill with the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Act in 2022. | |
By virtue of his votes to raise taxes (113), the Reparative Therapy Bans (114) and his efforts to be all things to all people on immigration enforcement (51). | |
Xiarhos is trying to be all things to all people re taxes, fiscal stewardship & mandatory vaccines On his website he claims he is opposed to the TCI Tax, gas tax increases and the Class Envy Tax (good) however he never signed the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge and tried to argue that the S2500/H4912 bill had nothing to do with the TCI tax in a debate with his primary opponent on The Pat Desmarais Show (95:20-101:00) (bad). Xiarhos also tried to sell this argument two weeks prior in a solo interview with Desmarais (78:20-82:00). He also failed to oppose mandated vaccines (same episode beginning at 101:00-104:00). Given that Xiarhos was endorsed by Whelan & Hunt (who voted for S2500/H4912 & the 2018 Grand Legislative Tax Increase) and given that his campaign received $4,700+ worth of digital ads and mailings from the Baker-aligned Massachusetts Majority PAC and failed to sign the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge, Xiarhos is at best a Maybe on fiscal issues. Xiarhos may have a 92% MassFiscalScorecard rating, but voted for the March 2022 tax on natural gas customers. | |
Xiarhos said he supports the Second Amendment on his website (good) but his remarks about regulating replica guns were a concern as well as this picture he posed for with a local gun-grabber activist group. Given that Xiarhos was endorsed by Whelan & Hunt (who voted for the 2018 ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab), pro-gun rights voters in the 5th Barnstable district will need to keep a close eye on legislative gun grabs and flood Rep. Xiarhos with emails and phone calls to vote against it. | |
Xiarhos is trying to be all things to all people re immigration enforcement. On his website he claims he is opposed to drivers licenses to illegal aliens, sanctuary cities, sanctuary state and drivers licenses for illegal aliens (policies favored by immigration enforcement hawks such as us). However, he also says he believes in the ongoing need for comprehensive immigration reform (which are documented code words for amnesty) on the federal level. This #Doublemindedness conflicts with his rhetoric about being open and transparent and should serve as a point of concern to voters of Sandwich, West Barnstable and parts of Bourne and Plymouth. Our co-founders asked Xiarhos multiple times what he meant by comprehensive immigration reform and sent him a questionnaire, but got no answer. At least he voted against giving illegal aliens licenses to drive. As a Rep, he voted against the Drivers Licenses for Illegal Aliens (good), but also co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) despite the grandiose promises of Uniparty politicians. | |
We know Orrall, Xiarhos and Chaisson were endorsed by MCFL in 2022 and or 2024 and or got a perfect score on the abortion questions as measured by the Renew MA Voter Guides. However, despite multiple attempts to reach the candidates, we were not able to determine if they supported an abolition of abortion bill, a bill that would reestablish equal protection for preborn and born by recriminalizing all methods of abortion and all participants to the abortion, including the parents to be. Furthermore, rating those candidates requires this footnote because none of those candidates have made public statements against #ModernDayChildSacrifice (aka abortion) in their campaign platforms. To potentially earn a YES+ or even a Yes score, we look for candidates who have taken a public stance on reestablishing equal justice and protection under the law for preborn and born. Our stance on abortion is in line with the Abolitionist/Equal Justice position of groups like Abolitionists Rising, Equal Protection for Posterity and Abolish Human Abortion, which is markedly different from the regulationist position on abortion held by Massachusetts Citizens for Life, National Right to Life, Students for Life of America and other #ProLifeIndustry operative groups. While we will include references to endorsements by MCFL, NRTL, SFLA and other pro-life groups in our footnotes, we will have to stress to our viewers that MCFL, NRTL and SFLA endorsements carry little to no weight with us since May 2022 when we learned that those groups OPPOSED Equal Justice legislation because they objected to the provision that subjected the parents-to-be of an aborted baby to criminal charges of homicide, even taking into account that such legislation does not pursue retroactive prosecution of parents who aborted their preborn children before the date the proposed legislation would have taken effect and even though their position creates a de facto legalization of do-it-yourself abortion. We noted that MacRae attended the 2024 MCFL Annual Fundraiser, but given we previously mentioned that MCFL opposed the 2022 Louisiana Abolition of Abortion bill, it is not enough for us to change our score. | |
Chaisson earned a perfect score on his Renew MA Voter Guide, but threw moral values conservatives for a loop when he became a member of the Log Cabin Republicans Pulse on their website. Moral Values Conservatives should be aware that the Log Cabin Republicans are a homosexualist special interest group who serve as a Fifth Column to interject homosexual issues into the GOP and undermine the nominally pro-traditional moral values stance of the Republican Party and its principals. At least he managed to be all things to all people on the moral values issues. OCTOBER 2024 UPDATE: We downgraded the Moral Values Voter Score earned by Michael Chaisson from No to NO- when we learned that the Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Boston (aka the Sodomy Club of the #MessGOP) endorsed his campaign. | |
Lombardo earned an average score of 94.4% from MassFiscalScorecard MassFiscalScorecard during the last five legislative sessions. However, his vote for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+. Even though his vote was a violation of the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayers Protection Pledge he previously signed, we only downgraded his score by one notch given that the bill did not pass in the 2018 legislative session and does not appear to be on the table this session. Nevertheless, We wish ATR and CLT would have called him out for violating his pledge. We suspect they gave him a mulligan because he affixed the #MagicR after his name. | |
Billerica Selectman Marc Lombardo opposed the (2008) and (2009) Billerica Gay Pride Proclamations. Representative Lombardo opposed the (2011) and (2016) Transgender Bathroom Bills, joined with former Rep Jim Lyons to free (Justina Pelletier) from DCF custody, supported the vote on marriage amendment (MassEquality 2010 Voter Guide) and voted against the (2018) and (2019) counseling bans (good). However, we were seriously concerned to see him express his support for banning "conversion therapy" after voting against the 2018 and 2019 counseling ban in interviews with (MassLive) and (The Lowell Sun), which forces us to downgrade his score from Yes to Mixed due to his agreement with the left's premises on this issue, as evidenced by his (Facebook Live remarks) in which he declared that he doesn't believe we can convert someone's sexuality nor should we even try (which countermands Leviticus 18:22, thou shalt not lie with a man as one lies with a woman, it is an abomination). Per his footnote 127, he endorsed the pro-LGBTQ Charlie Baker for Governor against his pro-family challengers Mark Fisher and Scott Lively. | |
We at WikiVote seek the immediate abolition and recriminalization of abortion in order to establish equal protection for preborn and born, not to regulate it and make exceptions for it. We were surprised to find that Lombardo was pro-life with exceptions. At least he opposes the ROE Act, taxpayer-funding of abortion, hosted the celebration of life event for crisis pregnancy centers and earned endorsements from MCFL for his efforts to try to regulate abortion. Although Rep. Lombardo earned praise from MCFL and ire from the abortion lobby, we have to score him as Maybe on this issue given his support for abortion exceptions as previously referenced by Vote Smart, plus his endorsement of pro-abortion politicians like Charlie Baker against his pro-life primary opponents. We understand Rep. Lombardo even presented a petition accompanied by a bill (H3372) from Diane Dorrington of Billerica to regulate abortions in Massachusetts by limiting them to preborn babies at 12 weeks and under (versus the current legal limit of 24 weeks). Nevertheless, our plumbline on abortion legislation is #NoBillButSB495 or other abolitionist legislation introduced in OK, TX, IN, AK, ID & WA. American Right to Life wrote extensively on how pro-life with exceptions Republicans helped germinate the abortion tree of death. We at WikiVote want to immediately abolish and recriminalize abortion to establish equal protection for preborn and born, not regulate it and make exceptions for it. We sent him a question to see where he stood on abortion and other key policy issues to see where he stands, in his own words but he did not return it. | |
Lombardo voted against the 2014 DeLeo-Peterson Gun Grab (good) H4376 and H4885 in 2023-24, but voted for the 2018 ERPO Gun Grab GOAL Ratings and the 2017 Bump Stock Ban (bad). We think the NRA lives up to their reputation for Negotiating Rights Away by endorsing him and giving him an A score. | |
Lombardo scores well on taxes (notwithstanding him breaking his ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge by voting for the Neighborhood Tax) and immigration enforcement (good) but voted for the ERPO Red Flag Gun Grab and the bump stock ban (bad). | |
(Good Endorsements) MassGOP Chairman-Marc Lombardo endorsed Frank McNamara over Maginn in 2011 and Rick Green for MassGOP Chair over Hughes in 2013; District Offices Lombardo supported Leah Cole over Greg Bunn for State Rep in 2013 and Kevin Kuros over Kate Campanale for Worcester Register of Deeds in 2018 OCPF Donations for Cole and Kuros. (Bad Endorsements) Lombardo endorsed Baker against his conservative gubernatorial challengers Mark Fisher and Scott Lively in 2014 and 2018 T&G, endorsed Mitt Romney for President over Rick Santorum or Ron Paul in 2012 and Kevin O'Connor for Senate. | |
Howitt earned an average score of 82% from MassFiscalScorecard (MassFiscalScorecard) during the last five completed legislative sessions. However, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call 351) led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+ and resulted in him violating the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge that he signed in 2010. We wish ATR and CLT would have called him out for violating his pledge. We suspect they gave him a mulligan because he affixed the #MagicR after his name. Fiscal watchdog voters should be disappointed, but not surprised he voted for the March 2022 tax on natural gas customers, which earned him a downgrade to Maybe. According to MassFiscalScorecard, he voted against the bloated spending budget bill in FY 2014 (good), but voted for the bloated spending budget bills in 2015-25 (bad 11x). | |
Howitt is a long-time supporter of abortion and homosexual marriage going back to his first state rep campaign in 2004 and voted for the 2018 Reparative Therapy Ban and the 2019 Reparative Therapy Ban. | |
Howitt is a long-time supporter of abortion and homosexual marriage going back to his first state rep campaign in 2004. This probably explains how he earned a 70% from Planned Parenthood in the 2018 legislative session. His votes for the ACCESS Act, the PATCH Act and the NASTY Women Act (which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts) led MCFL to change his candidate rating from Mixed to Passively Anti-Life. Howitt also voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. At least he has not sponsored the doctor-assisted death bill or the ROE Act this session, otherwise we would score him as NO- instead of No. | |
By virtue of his votes for multiple tax increases, his votes for the unconstitutional Reparative Therapy Ban, the ERPO Gun Grab, the Bump Stock Ban and his vote against Lyons's immigration enforcement amendment as referenced in footnotes 51, 105, 128, and 129. | |
Rating Rep. Kane on immigration enforcement requires this footnote because she has multiple good votes but multiple bad votes/actions on this metric. We know she voted against giving illegal aliens drivers licensesagainst the 2022 drivers licenses for illegal alien bill and voted for the 2018 Geoff Diehl amendment to try to defund Sanctuary Cities in Massachusetts from receiving taxpayer-funded local aid programs from the Commonwealth(good 2x) . However, she voted against Lyons's 2018 immigration enforcement amendment and co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens) At her core, she is a Uniparty Establishmentarian who agrees with the center-left consensus that enables illegal immigration. | |
Orrall earned an 87% MassFiscalScorecard score in his three legislative terms but co-sponsored the streaming services tax. Probably explains why he did not sign the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge and probably explains why the Democrats did not bother to field an opponent against him this year. Orrall served in Lakeville town government from 2010 to 2018 (2010-13 Finance Committee, 2013-18 as Town Moderator) and in that time we saw no opposition to the two debt exclusions and one operating override that the Lakeville voters passed, which conflicts with the rhetoric on his website about how Lakeville did not need to go to the taxpayers for Prop 2.5 overrides because of him. Orrall also voted for the bloated spending budgets from FY 2020 to FY 2025 according to MassFiscalScorecard. | |
Orrall voted for the 2019 Reparative Therapy Ban and signed the letter condemned the conservative Catholic State Committee Woman Deborah Martell for speaking out against the sexually abominable behavior of MA-2 Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa Paquette. At least he voted against the abortion and sex-change sanctuary bill, which keeps him at Thumb Down-No instead of Thumbs Down NO- (NO Negative) | |
Smola earned an average score of 82% from MassFiscalScorecard (MassFiscalScorecard) during the last five legislative sessions. However, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call 351) previously led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+, especially since he did violate the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge that he previously signed with those votes. We then further downgraded his score to Both-Maybe when we came across his co-sponsorships of the 2017-18 Registry of Deeds surcharge increase and the 2019-20 Registry of Deeds surcharge increase to provide more money for the Community Plundering Act boondoggle. Smola also voted for the March 2022 tax on natural gas customers. According to MassFiscalScorecard, he voted against the bloated spending budget bill in FY 2014 (good), but voted for the bloated spending budget bills in 2015-25 (bad 11x). | |
From Smola's Vote Smart archives. Smola voted against the Bathroom Bill and the 1913 Law (good) but voted for the Reparative Therapy Bans and the Abortion and Sex Change sanctuary bill (bad). Smola also signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette. | |
We previously scored Smola as Yes based on MCFL scoring him as Pro-Life. We downgraded him to Maybe in the 2020 election cycle after finding out that he voted for the PATCH Act (Roll Call 313, aka the Secret Abortions Bill) and the NASTY Women Act (Roll Call 409), (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade) in the 2018 legislative session and voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. We downgraded him to No in July 2022 after his vote for H4930, which protected abortionists from legal liability if their perform abortions on patients who come from other states as well as mandate that health insurers cover abortions and related services without imposing deductibles, co-pays or cost-sharing requirements. At leasr he voted against the ROE Act, otherwise we would have had to score him as NO-. | |
According to Vote Smart, Smola voted against In-State Tuition for illegal aliens, providing MassHealth Benefits to immigrants and against the Sanchez Amendment (which sent the Public Benefits Amendment to study) (good). However, he also voted against Lyons's 2018 immigration enforcement amendment (bad). His vote against the Lyons immigration amendment dropped his pro-forma immigration enforcement score from Yes to Maybe/Mixed. At least he voted against Drivers Licenses for Illegal Aliens in 2022, but he did not fill out our questionnaire so we do not know where he stands on other immigration issues such as DACA, H1Bs, legal immigration quotas etc. | |
Smola's 2006 vote for the RomneyCare socialized healthcare program is the primary reason why we scored him as Thumb Down_No on this metric. Other statist votes by Smola include his co-sponsorships of increasing the Registry of Deeds to underwrite the Community Plundering Act Boondoggle, his votes for the Reparative Therapy Bans, his mixed score on Gun Rights and his vote against the 2018 Lyons immigration enforcement amendment. | |
Smola once had has a good vote in intraparty contests. He endorsed the high-energy moderate Lew Evangelidis against the low-energy RINO Brad Jones in the 2008 House GOP Leadership contest. However, his bad endorsements (Charlie Baker against Scott Lively-2018 gubernatorial primary), The Hillman-Valanzola State Committee Slate against the Renew MA slate and Susie Whipps over Karen Anderson in the 2014 MA House primary exceed his good endorsements and result in a No score. UPDATE, December 2022: We had to downgrade the Supports Others score of Todd Smola to NO- from No in light of his signature on the letter defending the failed electoral record of the Establishment-backed Massachusetts Republican National Committee Man Ron Kaufman and his signature on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette outweighed those votes. | |
We previously scored Puppolo as Thumb Up_Yes because he voted against the abortion buffer zone bills. We downgraded Puppolo to Maybe because we recently found that he earned an A- from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts in the 2017-2018 legislative session for his votes for the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act) and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). We noted he at least refrained from co-sponsoring the ROE Act but voted for providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities. Puppolo voted against the ROE Act, but voted for the budget bill containing the ROE Act Amendment (which earned another downgrade from Maybe to No in 2021. Nevertheless, We disagreed with MCFL scoring him as Pro-Life in their 2018 legislative scorecard and were glad they fixed his score in 2022 and thereafter to reflect that he Supports Abortion when he voted for the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State bill. | |
Although Jones has a cumulative MassFiscalScorecard score of 88.5%, we score him as Thumb Down_No for fiscal issues due to his vote for the Grand Legislative Tax Increase House Roll Calls Supplement 381 and 382, an $800 Million per year new tax on wages, salaries and other earned income to fund a new welfare-state benefit. Other tax increases Jones voted for include the Community Benefit Districts (aka the Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362)) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call Supplement 351). Jones voting for three tax increases probably explains why he did not bother to sign the Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge. Jones also voted for the budget-busting RomneyCare socialized healthcare program (see more in 146) in 2006. | |
Rep. Jones has two good votes, his 2011 vote against the bathroom bill and his 2016 vote against the bathroom bill on this metric. However, his bad votes such as his January 2007 vote against the marriage amendment, his June 2007 vote against the marriage amendment, his 2008 vote to repeal the 1913 Law and export homosexual marriage across the country and his 2018 and 2019 votes to ban Reparative Therapy more than offset his good votes and resulted in us scoring him as Thumb Down_No in 2018 and 2020. His vote for the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary bill and condemnation of the Orthodox Catholic and grassroots conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell for speaking out against the sexually abominable behavior of MA-2 Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa Paquette resulted in us downgrading him further to Thumbs Down_NO- (NO Negative) | |
Jones earned a 65% score from #PlannedMurderhood in the 2017-2018 legislative session and a C from NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts for votes for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act), the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). Jones voted the right way on the 2014 New Buffer Zone Law, after voting the wrong way on the 2007 Original Buffer Zone Law, as recorded by Vote Smart. Jones also voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when he voted for H3638. Jones voted against the ROE Act, but voted for the budget bill containing the ROE Act. Jones also voted for the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary Bill (as previously referenced in his aformentioned Vote Smart link). | |
Jones has four good votes against providing taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens but voted against the 2018 Lyons Immigration Enforcement Amendment (not good). We dropped his score to No in October 2024 when we learned about additional anti-enforcement votes such as his 2018 vote to block an amendment to withhold state funding to Sanctuary Cities (Roll Call 335) and that he voted for the FY 2024 budget, which included subsidized college tuition for illegal aliens. He also co-signed a letter to the highest-ranking elected public servants in Washington requesting so-called comprehensive immigration reform which includes a pathway to citizenship for eligible undocumented workers (which every long-time behind-the-ropes grassroots activist knows is code words for amnesty for illegal aliens). | |
We scored Jones as Thumb Down_No based on Jones voting for tax increases (footnote 142), his votes to ban Reparative Therapy (footnote 143), his feckless gun rights score (footnote 105), his weak immigration enforcement score (footnote 145), and his 2006 vote for the RomneyCare socialized healthcare program. | |
Ronald Reagan once said that his 80% ally was not his 20% enemy. Unfortunately, Rep. Ferguson failed to meet the Reagan 80% plumbline when it came to voting on fiscal issues as her career MassFiscalScorecard score is an average of 76.33%, a median of 73% with a 9.36% Standard Deviation and ranged between 67% and 88% during her tenure serving as a state rep. Her votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax (House Roll Call 362) and the Car Rental Tax (House Roll Call 351) resulted in her violating her Americans for Tax Reform Taxpayer Protection Pledge, forcing us to score her as Maybe instead of Yes. We wish ATR and CLT would have called her out for violating her pledge. Perhaps if they did, her would not have engaged in a gross violation of the pledge by voting for S2500, which included a new Carbon Tax. and earned her an August 2020 downgrade to No from Maybe. We suspect they gave her a mulligan because she affixed the #MagicR after her name. | |
Ferguson voted for the Bathroom Bill and both Reparative Therapy Bans. She also signed on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette and voted forH5090, the Abortion and Sex-change Export and Sanctuary Act. She has one good vote 11 years ago her 2011 vote against the bathroom bill. | |
Ferguson earned a 65% score from #PlannedMurderhood in the 2017-2018 legislative session for her votes for the ACCESS Act (aka the Insurance Coverage for Abortifacients Act), the PATCH Act (aka the Secret Abortions Act), and the NASTY Women Act (which resulted in Massachusetts legislatively decriminalizing abortion even if the supreme Court of the United State ever overturned Roe v. Wade). Ferguson voted to give state aid to abortuaries to replace the federal Title X cuts when she voted for H3638. She voted against the ROE Act, but voted forH5090, the Abortion and Sex-change Export and Sanctuary Act. At least she voted against the 2014 New Buffer Zone Law and has not sponsored the doctor-assisted death bill this session, otherwise we would score her as NO- instead of No. | |
By virtue of her mediocre fiscal score (footnote 147), her votes for the anti-family, anti-constitutional Reparative Therapy Ban (footnote 148), her votes for the Big Three Gun Grabs (footnote 18) and her vote against the Jim Lyons immigration amendment (footnote 51) | |
Although Rep. Berthiaume did not sign the ATR Taxpayers Protection Pledge, he earned an average MassFiscalScorecard score of 88.6% from 2015-24. Nevertheless, his votes for the Community Benefit Districts Neighborhood Tax House Roll Call 362 and the Car Rental Tax House Roll Call 351 led us to score him as Yes instead of YES+. FEBRUARY 2025 UPDATE we downgraded his Fiscal Grade to Maybe when we learned that he did not take a public stand against the 2022 Spencer Debt Exclusion tax increase and voted for the bloated FY 2024 and FY 2025 spending budgets proposed by left-wing ideologue Democrat Governor Maura Healey and the left-wing ideologue Democrat-controlled House of Representatives. | |
We previously scored Rep. Berthiaume as Yes because MCFL endorsed Rep. Berthiaume in his three campaigns and because NARAL and #PlannedGenocide don't like Berthiaume for co-sponsoring five bills to regulate abortion in the 2018 legislative session. However we have to score him as Maybe on this issue given that we recently found that he voted for the NASTY Women Act (Roll Call 409) in the previous legislative session, which legislatively decriminalized abortion in Massachusetts and which paved the way for the ROE Act, aka the Infanticide Bill. We noted he voted against (Roll Call 34) providing state taxpayer funds to abortuaries to replace cancelled federal funds to underwrite family planning activities and voted against the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State Bill, which collectively kept him at a Maybe score instead of a No or NO-. Nevertheless, Reps. Berthiaume and Durant reinforce why MFI Director Ron Barndt only gives his money to candidates who put that they are pro-life on their website, and why we have been working to implement his plumbline for scoring candidates. | |
Berthiaume voted against Lyons's 2018 immigration enforcement amendment. At least he voted against giving illegal aliens drivers licenses in 2022. | |
We score Rep. Berthiaume as a mixed on this issue. Helping him on this metric is his 88.6% MassFiscalScorecard score, his vote against the unconstitutional Reparative Therapy Ban and his solid overall gun rights record. However, his votes for the Car Rental Tax and Neighborhood Tax (footnote 152), his vote for the supplemental spending bill that contained Bump Stock Ban (footnote 111) and his vote against the Lyons Immigration Enforcement Amendment 153) collectively bump him down to a Maybe on this metric. | |
Berthiaume supported Baker for Governor against his conservative gubernatorial primary challengers (Fisher in 2014 and Lively in 2018) and worked against Chanel Prunier's mother Ronna when she ran for State Committee in 2016 even though Chanel got the Marlborough RCC to give him $9442 for his state rep campaign(s). UPDATE, December 2022: We had to downgrade the Supports Others score of Donnie Berthiaume to NO- from No in light of his signature on the letter defending the failed electoral record of the Establishment-backed Massachusetts Republican National Committee Man Ron Kaufman and his signature on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette | |
Soter earned a No score for inexplicably voting for S2500, which included a new Carbon Tax. This is a negatively marked contrast from his December 2019 Facebook post expressing opposition to the TCI Tax and his vote for S2500 took place less than a year after co-sponsoring the the streaming services tax. 8th Worcester District voters should compare his content-free 2020-present campaign website and contrast it to the fiscally conservative rhetoric on his 2018 campaign website. We note Soter has an 81.667% MassFiscalScorecard score, but given that he did not sign the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge (aka the No New Taxes Pledge), it will take more than a few good #FailureTheater votes for him to earn back a Maybe or Yes score on this metric. | |
Soter voted against the 2019 counseling ban H140 (good), but co-sponsored Shawn Dooley's Dime Store Counseling Ban H110. Soter scored an 85% on the 2018 Renew Mass Voter Guide but answered yes to mandating the graphically profane sex ed curriculum. We revised his score to NO- on June 1, 2023 when he made a Facebook post from his campaign account promoting Sodomite Pride Month even after being warned by multiple people that sodomy is an abominable sin as decreed by our Creator in Leviticus 18:22 and other Biblical Scripture. We were disappointed, but not surprised that he doubled down on his obstreperousness in 2024. | |
Soter's website says nothing about abortion. He did vote against the ROE Act and the Abortion and Sex Change Sanctuary State bill. In his 2018 Catholic Citizenship/Renew MA Coalition Questionnaire, Soter expressed opposition to doctor-assisted-death and support for the CC/RMC agenda of stopping taxpayer funding of abortion, opposing the #PlannedGenocide-endorsed Healthy Youth Act (aka the graphic sex ed curriculum) and regulating abortion. MCFL endorsed him in 2018 but scored him as Blank in 2020. Nevertheless, MCFL's plumbline is #AndThenYouCanKillTheBaby abortion regulations, whereas our plumbline is the abolition and recriminalization of abortion by establishing equal justice for preborn and born, has no exceptions or loopholes, does not try to regulate abortion and ignore the unconstitutional ruling in Roe v. Wade. | |
By virtue of his #DoubleMindedness on fiscal issues and his co-sponsorship of the Dime Store Reparative Therapy Ban. In addition, the S2500/H4912 bill he voted for sets arbitrary goals to cut green house gas emissions and gives power to the executive branch to do whatever they see fit to meet these goals. This includes entering Massachusetts into regional cap and trade deals that hand over taxing authority to a third party bureaucracy, and adding new regulations and mandates. This bill also sets new CA style energy efficiency standards on the following: commercial dishwashers, commercial fryers, commercial hot-food holding cabinets, commercial ovens, commercial steam cookers, computer or computer monitors, electric vehicle supply equipment, faucets, high CRI fluorescent lamps, portable electric spas, residential ventilating fans, showerheads, sprinklers, urinals, water closets, and water coolers. No wonder why former Sandwich Selectman Tom Keyes lamented that it was worse than the TCI initiative in conversations with our Co-Founder. | |
Soter endorsed the reformer Steven Fruzzetti in the Norfolk, Bristol & Plymouth State Committee race (good-February 2020 Boston Broadside, Page 6 Print Edition) but endorsed the Old Guard Establishmentarian Matt Sisk against the reformer Stephen Tougas (bad). In 2016, he endorsed the RINO Kim Roy against her reformer opponent Jen Modica (bad). In 2014 he gave $500 to the RINO gubernatorial candidate Charlie Baker and in 2018 he gave $200 to the RINO running mate of Baker (Karyn Polito-bad 2x). UPDATE, December 2022: We had to downgrade the Supports Others score of Mike Soter to NO- from No in light of his signature on the letter defending the failed electoral record of the Establishment-backed Massachusetts Republican National Committee Man Ron Kaufman and his signature on to the letter calling for the resignation of the moral values conservative State Committee Woman Deborah Martell when Martell spoke out against the sexually abominable behavior of Congressional Candidate Jeffrey Sossa-Paquette | |
We created this footnote in November 2024 to further note how we scored Turco as a Maybe on the Moral Values Voter metric. We scored Turco as a Maybe because he voted against the Abortion/Sex Change Sanctuary State Bill in 2022 (good) but voted for the parentage bill in 2024 (not good, based on the legislative analysis of the bill by the Massachusetts Family Institute). At least he co-sponsored the parent consent for sex education bill, even if it had no chance of passing. | |
We created this footnote in November 2024 to further note how we scored Turco as a Maybe on the Right to Life metric. We scored Turco as a Maybe on Life because we see no evidence that he has tried to advance a bill that reestablishes equal justice for preborn and born and the only bills he co-sponsored regarding abortion were to regulate it. We are aware that MCFL endorsed Turco in 2022 and 2024 but as we have written in previous emails, trying to regulate abortion is not sufficient to earn a YES+ or Yes score. We recognized that Turco voted against the Abortion/Sex Change Sanctuary State Bill in 2022 (good) and co-sponsored an informed consent bill to try to regulate usage of abortion pills, co-sponsored a bill to regulate late-term abortions (notwithstanding the fact that late term abortions account for 1% of abortions). | |
Cruz opposed the Brockton Sanctuary City ordinance (pro-enforcement) but immigration enforcement advocates should be concerned when he said he hoped that the case (where the Haitian illegal crimigrant raped the 15 year old girl at the Rockland Comfort Inn (aka the Rockland Healey Hotel)) does not fuel anti-migrant sentiment. | |
By virtue of his squishy scores on gun rights (165) and immigration (163) | |
Gun rights minded voters should be concerned about what Cruz said about so-called ghost guns and 3-D printed weapons (as part of his membership in the MA District Attorneys Association). It forced us to recall when our Co-Founders attended the 2016 Gun Rights Rally in Belchertown where the known-gun-rights activist Jan Morgan warned us that gun registration is the first step towards gun confiscation, which then leads to the annihilation or subjugation of the disarmed citzenry. Our Co-Founder sent Cruz an email asking where he stood on the 2023-24 gun grab legislation, but Cruz did not reply. | |
We created this footnote to take into account pro-enforcement votes by Markey (voting against the 2022 drivers licenses for illegal aliens) and earning a B grade from the MA Coalition for Immigration Reform in 2024 as well as anti-enforcement votes in 2018 (House Roll Call 334-Amendment 347 and House Roll Call 335-Amendment 227), which explains how he previously earned a Cumulative Score of Maybe/Mixed on immigration enforcement. We downgraded his score back to No in February 2025 when we learned he voted to perpetuate the MA Healey Hotels that housed illegal alien crimigrants from the BidenVasion and opposed Massachusetts cooperating with ICE to remove illegal aliens. | |
Sweezey figured out how to be all things to all people on fiscal issues. On the campaign trail, he campaigned as a supporter of small business and to stop the out of touch politicians from raising your taxes, spending your tax dollars wastefully, and hurting our small businesses. Two weeks and four days into his first term serving as a legislator, he ENDORSED the 2025 South Shore Technical Debt Exclusion Tax Increase even though the estimated cost to Hanson taxpayers exceeded that of the 2013-14 automatic gas tax proposal. Three weeks after endorsing the debt exclusion override, he ENDORSED the operating override tax increase in Duxbury. To paraphrase the late Virginia Conservative Activist and VARight.com Editor Tom White, Nothing is more conservative than a Republican wanting to obtain elected public office. And nothing is more liberal than a Republican once elected. At least he knew how to play the #FailureTheater game by voting against the Healey Hotels from the BidenVasion of illegal alien crimigrants, notwithstanding that it passed. | |
As a legislative candidate, Chaisson campaigned on fiscal responsibility and accountability to Beacon Hill. As an Advisory Committee Member (which is similar to the Finance Committees in other towns), he SUPPORTED the 2024 Foxborough debt exclusion tax increases even though the tax increases were more costly to Foxborough taxpayers than the pro forma impact of the 2013-14 Automatic Gas Tax Increases, which were defeated in 2014 when a majority of MA voters voted for Question 1. | |
We previously scored Pease as Yes because we recognized that he received a 94% score from MassFiscalScorecard from 2021-24. FEBRUARY 2025 UPDATE, we downgraded his grade to Maybe when we learned he voted for the bloated FY 2024 and FY 2025 spending budgets proposed by left-wing ideologue Democrat Governor Maura Healey and the left-wing ideologue Democrat-controlled House of Representatives and that MassFiscalScorecard did not score the budget votes. | |
We previously scored Taunton City Councilor Christopher Coute as Yes on Fiscal Issues in 2022 based on his campaign website. We had to downgrade his score to Maybe to recognize that he voted for soaring spending budgets, voted to put the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase on the ballot and endorsed the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase. APRIL 28, 2025 UPDATE: After Chris Coute dropped out of running for State Representative and Taunton City Councilor Lawrence Quintal stepped up to replace him as the GOP nominee, we found that Quintal joined him in campaigning for lower taxes/fiscal responsibility as a state rep candidate but voted for the aforementioned soaring spending budgets, voting to put the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase on the ballot and did not oppose the the 2023 debt exclusion tax increase. | |
We know Ventresca earned a perfect score from Vote Core Values when he filled out his 2012 candidate questionnaire and attended a recent fundraising event hosted by the Billerica Pro-Life Network, which is why we were surprised to see him give money to the homosexual political candidate and operative John Paul Moran. When our Co-Founder asked him about his donation to Moran and Moran hosting a fundraiser to his campaign, Ventresca tried to rationalize Moran as an 80% ally of conservatives who met the Reagan Plumbline, even after we informed him that Moran and his GO-USA 501(c)4 organization also supported early term abortion in addition to the sodomite lifestyle. |

Donald J. Trump Republican, Palm Beach, FL, Incumbent |
At first glance, Donald Trump would seem to be the best President to come along since sliced bread, and if you only read Republican Tump blogs, you would think so; but, in between the lines, he's done things that would not realy be considered Conservative, especially if you read the evidence as stated in footnotes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. If you really consider these things, you will see that he's not as Conservative as we would like him to be. The problem with populism is that people have wishful thinking and ascribe attributes to someone that they don't have without examining the details, and this is precisely what happened by Democrats to Barak Obama, then we found out who the real Barak Obama was (See Woke). We at WikiVote.net would rather have warned that that there was going to be rain, than be the weather man that says it will be a sunny day, only for you to depend on that and have it rain on your parade. If he would only get some real Conservative advisors, and if he would only listen to them, then he would be the greatest President "since sliced bread. |
These are one of the many candidates that were really hard to score. So many of them try to be all things to all people by hiding what they believe. We at WikiVote.net would rather not endorse such a candidate, because such a candidate usually has something to hide that's usually found out only after it's too late to do anything about the damage done by the candidate's vote at the State House. The voter's are not fooled by this, and Republican candidates who do this are only lessening their chances of getting elected and subsequently hurting us all. Why? Because the the voters say, "Why vote for a Democrat in Republican clothing when I can vote for the real thing?" We at WikiVote.net think there are many more voters waiting to vote for a real Conservative than these RINOs think; although, when a real Conservative does run, they are most often met by RINO resistance in the Primary, because the RINO Establishment Uniparty does not want to give the voters the chance to vote for them in the General Election out of fear of not maintaining the status quo and that the voters will prove them wrong. | |
You may have noticed that most all Democrats rate as Thumbs down negative. This is because Democrats generally do not have any demonstrated Conservative values, no matter what they say, or they wouldn't be elected in this state, but this is most likely because of what's been enumerated in the last note, and that was if a Republican is promising to not be a Republican, then why not vote for the real Democrat? Since most of our elected officials and legislature are Democrats, these ratings are mostly Thumbs down negative. |

A person who wants to end all medically unnecessary abortion. Note: "Medically Necessary" does not include "Physiologically Necessary." | |
Refers to a candidate who behaves as a chameleon trying to appear as a Conservative to Conservatives and as a Liberal to Liberals in order to be accepted by all. President Abraham Lincoln correctly pointed out that those people will eventually show their true colors and be outed when he famously said, "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time." | |
"And Then You Can Kill the Baby" is a phrase used in the abolitionist community to refer to legislation that instead of abolishing abortion, only regulates abortion and fails to reestablish equal justice for the born and preborn. Someone actually bought the domain andthenyoucankillthebaby.com and embedded a redirect so that it redirects to the National Right to Life's website. | |
A political candidate who through their stated beliefs and actions preserves the recognized God-given liberties the Founding Fathers fought and died for, which have been enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, and established as our republican government set forth in the U.S. Constitution (Article IV Section 4). Conservative candidates believe in personal responsibility, limited government, free markets, individual liberty, traditional American values, and a strong national defense. They believe the role of government should be no more than to provide people the freedom necessary to pursue their own goals, and they generally emphasize empowerment of the individual to solve problems. Note: Refer to the table directly above. | |
Refers specifically to a political candidate who isn't running on core value issues. Their web sites and their literature are typically free of any content indicating what their beliefs are on core values issues. Note: See Lukewarm. | |
Red State created the term Failure Theater to describe what "happens when a political party puts on a big show of fighting for something their base really wants with no intention of actually delivering," but wants credit from the naive members of their political base they're playing to for allegedly having tried and failed. For Conservatives, they are not trying to advance the Conservative agenda; they are really attempting to con Conservatives into believing they have attempted to implement Conservative policy, when in fact they were really delivering their political deliverables to their Donor Class paymasters all along. | |
A Democrat who is not a member of the House Progressive Caucus, nor did they receive an endorsement from the hard-left Democrat PACs like Progressive MA, Mass Alliance, Sunrise, Our Revolution, Justice Democrats, et. al. They vote against Conservatives, sometimes sponsoring hard-left ideologue bills, but they're in it for the money, the title, the influence etc.; i.e. they're not in it to actually do anything. Think Speaker DeLeo & Majority Leader Mariano (when he was the Majority Leader), not AOC and The Squad. | |
The Republican counterpart to a Go-Along-to-Get-Along Democrat, but is supported by the Establishment. Note: See RINO. | |
Applies to a political candidate who wants to increase the size of government to implement their vision of a utopia, generally involving everyone being equal to their standards, rather than everyone having the equal right to be what they want to be, and to believe what they want to believe. Note: See Political Spectrum. | |
A left-leaning political candidate who through their stated beliefs and actions uses government to force their version of equal opportunity and equality for all upon the collective to the exclusion of individual rights. Liberal candidates believe it is the duty of the government to alleviate all social ills, and to protect civil liberties and human rights to the exclusion of religion and traditional American values. They believe in regulating all facets of society and redistributing wealth, as the role of the government should be to guarantee that no one is in need, because they generally believe that government is the remedy for all problems, with the ultimate solution ending in an un-American one world government. | |
Applies to a political candidate who is unwilling to take a stand on the issues, even if pressed, in an effort to not offend anyone in order to try to get 100% of the vote. Note: See Content-Free; and remember, being lukewarm is generally frowned upon. | |
The phenomena of a politician or of a person being granted special preference and privilege or of a fault being overlooked for the only reason being because that politician or person happens to be a Democrat. | |
The phenomena of a politician or of a person being granted special preference and privilege or of a fault being overlooked for the only reason being because that politician or person happens to be a Republican. | |
Refers to the fact that the Massachusetts Republican party (MassGOP) has been largely taken over and screwed up by the politically incompetent and ideologically soft-left RINO Establishment, resulting its present political minority Note: See RINO. | |
2018 legislation with the acronym NASTY for "Negating Archaic Statutes Targeting Young" Women, repealing the commonwealth's centuries-old criminal abortion law. | |
A term coined by Ted Cruz in 2016 to refer to the worldview and left-wing values of then GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump. After the 2016 election, someone created a website called "We are New York Values" which "virtue-signaled" (advertising political issues mainly comprising matters of social and racial justice, etc.) all the woke left-wing causes and organizations that make up the New York City Democrat Party's coalition of governance. Note: That was 8 years ago, and Trump probably no longer holds to those same #NewYorkValues he was once accused of having. | |
A political candidate who frequently runs for an elected office and rarely, if ever, wins. The term is the opposite of an incumbent politician who repeatedly defends their seats successfully. | |
Slang reference to the nationwide child sacrifice (a.k.a., abortion) operator Planned Parenthood. Other nicknames for abortion clinics are "kill mills" and "abortuaries". | |
A measurement of where a political candidate stands on the amount of government control there should be. A complete hard-left ideologue would be someone who believes that government is the solution to all our problems and wants 100% Orwellian jack-boot totalitarian government control, but a complete hard-right ideologue would be somone who wants no government; although, 100% no government cannot exist as a stable form of government, because it would be a chaotic state of total anarchy, as even an individual must have their own government to manage their affairs and protect their property. Therefore, for example, a right-leaning moderate believes that government is a necessary evil and only wants enough government to maintain individual liberty (e.g. a constitutional republic); but, a leftist generally wants to manipulate the laws and use the force of government in order to control others to implement their sense of a utopia, with a government devolving, starting with a democracy, leading to socialism, inevitably to fascism and communism, enforced with technology (a Technocracy). Though the average leftist usually does not intend for totalitarian government to be established, this has historically always been shown to be the result, mostly because the leftist's view of a utopia generally involes everyone being equal to their standards, rather than everyone having the equal right to be what they want to be, and to believe what they want to believe, which the hard-leftist takes advantage of. | |
Name taken from an elite unit of the Imperial Roman army that served as personal bodyguards and intelligence agents for the Roman emperors.  This term is used here to describe the relationship between the Log Cabin Republicans (of Greater Boston, a.k.a., the Sodomy Club) and the faction of the Uniparty faction known as the MassGOP RINO Establishment operating under Amy Carnevale's leadership, in that they promote and protect the soft-left ideology of the Uniparty from being audited by the grassroots reform-oriented Conservative activists. | |
The Pro-Life Industry is a term used in the abolitionist community to refer to pro-life organizations who raise substantial sums of money from naive and overly trusting grassroots pro-life activists and Republican Uniparty donations, but who work in subtle ways to oppose the abolition of abortion. | |
Term coined by Steve Deace when he was a salt-fire-and-light Conservative media personality to refer to the radical militant homosexual movement's efforts to force their abominable behaviors down society's throats; especially, forcing Biblically Minded Christians and Jews to bend their knees in subservience of the homosexual agenda. | |
Applies to a political candidate who wants less government. Note: See Political Spectrum. | |
Republican In Name Only - A Democrat in Republican clothing. Note: See Go-Along-to-Get-Along Republican. | |
Perversion of the law meant to protect private property rights-based individual liberty to allow violation of those rights (e.g. legal plunder), always eventually ending in feudalism, fascism or communism. | |
Nickname for the Log Cabin Republicans, especially the Greater Boston Chapter. | |
Term describing the stating of information while simultaneously providing proof. For example, it's the difference between just saying, "Joey water skis," and saying the same thing while simultaneously providing links to web sites with pictures and videos of Joey identifiably waterskiing. | |
A political means of publicly shaming someone to conform. A term originating from Maoist China of public events, often attended by large crowds, during which the target is publicly humiliated and subjected to verbal and physical abuse for having "counterrevolutionary" thinking or behavior. In contemporary American politics, it is used when a hard-left Democratic ideologue challenges a soft-left Uniparty Establishment Democrat for being insufficiently Liberal, or when a liberal Uniparty Establishment RINO challenges another Republican not aligned with the Establishment for failing to satisfy the Establishment's liberal litmus tests. | |
A dictatorship of unelected scientists, engineers, and bureaucrats utilizing technology for the purposes of global data-driven governance enforcing socialist laws, a.k.a. Sustainable Development, Agenda 21, etc. (e.g. China has morphed from a communist nation into a Technocracy), in which the population of the world is managed as a single gigantic assembly line, where all items and actions are tracked and controlled, and allotments of energy are used as currency (e.g., carbon credits). | |
Conservative media personality Daniel Horowitz's reference to the soft-left political Establishment as a whole, consisting of Democrats and soft-left Liberal Republicans, also known as the ruling party of one-party rule. Note: See RINO. | |
A psychological State of allowed programmed deception in which the sufferer is so convinced of their facts that they are unwilling to consider or even listen to the truth, especially if the accepted facts of their embraced ideology should fundamentally differ from the truth. While either Democrats, RINOs, and Conservatives can all be Woke, "Wokeness" is mainly a left-wing phenomenon. This is primarily because the principal tool of those who are Woke is to use government to bring about the changes that they seek, which in itself moves the needle of government to the left. The reason is that law is force, a double-edge sword, for which the addition of more and more laws increases the chance that these new laws will eventually be used tyrannically by either side for their own benefit. For example, a law to deport Hamas activists today can be used against Jewish sympathizers tomorrow (Read "The Law" first published in 1850 by Frédéric Bastiat). Those who are Woke tend to base their decisions on emotions, propaganda, and peer pressure (e.g., the torch and pitch fork-carrying villagers of the old Frankenstein movies). The best modern-day left-wing Woke example I can give is someone who has TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome), and the best right-wing example I could find was this photograph I found on the Internet. History has shown that they are even willing to vote for their own enslavement, if it feels good to do so to go along with the herd, rather than perform the research and critically evaluate the facts first. |
