Natick Election Guide 2012

1. Ballot: The fall ballot could see three or four initiatives on it, including one that would score teachers on performance and test scores rather than seniority. What do you think of this measure?

2. Markey: Rep. Ed Markey's 7th Congressional District stretches across the eastern part of the state, including Natick. 

3. Brown v. Warren: One of the hottest political races in the state is for U.S. Senate between first-term Sen. Scott Brown and democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren. In a recent Patch poll, 61 percent of you said Brown will win. 

4. Obama: 2012 is a presidential election year. Will incumbent Barack Obama be re-elected? In a recent Patch poll, most said he didn't deserve a second term. What do you think?

5. Romney: Republican former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney took 75 percent of the vote in Natick on Super Tuesday. Is that an indication of November?
