Massachusetts Race Heats Up by Jason

In Massachusetts, the vote is heating up.  47% of the vote so far for the republicans have gone to Donald Trump, compared to only 16% of the vote going to the person in second place, Marco Rubio.  For the Democrats, Hillary Clinton has 55% while Bernie Sanders has a much smaller 38%.  In the exit polls, 66% of the people who want people to “tell it as it is” voted for Donald Trump.  On the Democratic side, 67% of youths in this state vote for Bernie Sanders, while 63% of the women over fifty vote for Clinton.  Back in the 2008 election, Hillary Clinton had the same winning and losing demographics, and she won Massachusetts, so it seems that history might repeat itself with this election.   Something interesting is that 20,000 people from the Democratic party left and went to the Republican party.  Many of these same people voted for Donald Trump, so many people are suspicious that they may have only voted for Trump so that he would lose the General Election.  This seems like a very easy victory for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
