I know you hate Roxbury and all, but we are in Sonia's soon-to-be district.

I don't live there, but I plan on voting for her a few times using my fake registrations.

CALM DOWN!!! It's a joke. The registrations are real. I have multiple personalities.

(tiptoeing away from computer)

I do!

It was nice to cast my vote for Sonia in the primary.

I do too!

I voted for Sonia too in the primary.. My friend, who supported Wilkerson until this morning, wore his Wilkerson shirt to the bar where he works this evening, tongue-in-cheek, of course...

Are Boston election officials obligated to count people who vote for Diane Wilkerson as voting for Senator Dianne Wilkerson?

Intent of the voter is what matters

and since a vote for 'Diane' is pretty obviously a vote for Dianne, it counts. See How to Run for Office as a Sticker or Write-in Candidate and How to Request a Recount for more details.
