While you there are a lot of the -- it's been -- hard fought campaign here in the sixth congressional district in the not sure of Massachusetts and so it's kind of a nice way to and it.

To the legislature -- can you tell -- they gonna win this one.

Yeah I feel pretty comfortable and confident you know up in my area -- people really concerned about the economy.
