| Description | DANVERS -- Beneath two glittering chandeliers, nearly 200 of the Republican party faithful cast ballots this morning in a straw poll for the U.S. Senate race, choosing state Representative Daniel Winslow.
Organizers said the nonbinding poll, which cost $10 a ballot, was a chance to gin up excitement for the coming campaign and connect candidates with activists.
Politicians used it as an opportunity to shake hands and introduce themselves, although all three downplayed their expectations of winning.
Winslow, the winner, slipped out of the Danversport Yacht Club before the votes were tallied, to spend the afternoon campaigning on the North Shore. But before he left, he said he thought the event sent the wrong message. |
