On Super Tuesday, Holliston Voters Low in Numbers

Mitt Romney is almost guaranteed to win the Republican ticket for Massachusetts on Super Tuesday.

On a Super Tuesday where Massachusetts' presidential picks are all but certain, Holliston voters came to the polls in surprisingly low numbers, election inspectors said. 

Mitt Romney, who is almost guaranteed to win the state he is the former governor of, is hoping a big win today can make the traditionally left-leaning Massachusetts up for grabs during the Presidential race in November, according to boston.com.

But in Holliston, relatively few residents entered the High School to cast their vote in the first few hours of polling, inspectors said.
