In fact, I have emails from them where they quite plainly tell people who they should vote for.
They even do get-out-the-vote drives in support of anti-gay candidates.
Article 8 is
most deffinitely engaged in directly campaigning for or against particular candidates.

GOOD WRITE-IN CANDIDATES FOR THE STATE HOUSE.
We know getting on the ballot in the primary as a write-in then winning the general election is always a long shot (tho it's not that unusual -- one candidate did it in 2004 and he's now a state rep). But there are some write-in efforts that are so compelling that we need to let people know, and wish these candidates the best! Heck, you've got to admire these guys for putting in the effort.
5th Middlesex (Natick/Sherborn/Millis)
Unopposed Rep. David Linsky (D-Natick), who got our award for THE most dangerous legislator, based on the number of vile bills he sponsored and supported last session, including the one to soften the penalties for bestiality.
GOOD WRITE-IN: William Whittlesey (R-Sherborn)
6th Middlesex (Framingham)
Unopposed Rep. Deborah Blumer (D-Framingham). Another horrid leftie, who also scores a big ZERO from Citizens for Limited Taxation.
GOOD WRITE-IN: Jim Rizoli (R-Framingham). Solid on all conservative issues, and a leader on opposing illegal immigration.
7th Middlesex (Ashland/Framingham)
Unopposed: Rep. Tom Sannicandro (D-Ashland). First-termer, endorsed by the homosexual groups, and another CLT ZERO.
GOOD WRITE-IN: Kevin Looby (R-Framingham)
10th Plymouth (Brockton/West Bridgewater/Easton)
Unopposed: Rep. Christine E. Canavan (D-Brockton). Another state house liberal.
GOOD WRITE-IN: William Pribusauskas (R-Brockton) Pribusauskas is pro-tradl marriage, pro-family, pro-life, and one of original 10 signers of CLT Prop 2 1/2.
12th Plymouth (Duxbury/Kingston/Plymouth)
Rep Thomas. O'Brien (D-Kingston) resigned, and decided not to run again after filing papers.
Republican Paul Curtis is on the ballot.
But Olly Demacedo (R-Kingston), brother of Rep. Vinny Demacedo, is out to beat Curtis as a write-in to get on the ballot. The word is that Olly would be even better than Vinny in the State House (and Vinny's pretty darn good).
WELL, TUESDAY'S THE BIG DAY!!
