The Editors note
This endorsement is significant because the Tab is delivered free to thousands of households in Newton each week and is the paper of record for local issues there.
...Andrea Silbert has shown she can be an equal to those running for governor - as well as an advocate for job creation, the environment and the homeless.
Given that Newton's turnout in 2002 was amongst the three highest in the state (higher than Worcester, interestingly), this endorsement could have an effect on a lightly covered race.
It is also important because Deb Goldberg was thought to be running strong in Newton, given her connections to the Jewish community in Newton and Brookline. While she will likely receive the most votes in those two towns, the endorsement of Andrea Silbert by both the Brookline and Newton Tabs is telling.
