Brother lives down near the MA, line, so he's probably seeing more blue than farther north.
Actually a lot of the border towns like Hudson, Pelham, Salem, and Plastow are hard-Red. People who are economically tied to MA but don’t want to live in the People’s Republic of MA have moved there.
From what I have seen, the real problem people are from NY, NJ, and PA.
Nashua, the 2nd largest city, is on the border. It might as well be MA. There are 27 State Representatives, every one of them is a Dem.
