Massachusetts elections have never had the notoriety of those in Long's Louisiana, or the predictability of Vermont's. Traditionally, the Republicans pit a Puritan Beacon Hiller against a Democrat recently arisen from Boston's South End. This year the situation has changed: for one of the two major state posts, the Democrats have nominated a fair-haired boy from the upper classes, and the Republicans have chosen two relatively unknown political hacks in their nearly hopeless campaign effort.
