David at Blue Mass. Group lays out the charges: Basically, Brown, who wants voters to show ID when they vote, is encouraging supporters to vote by absentee ballot - and to get their friends to do so - even though that would violate Massachusetts law, since in Massachusetts, absentee ballots are legally only for people who know they won't be able to get to the polls on Election Day - not for people who just feel like voting early.

Red Mass. Group reports people who signed a petition to repeal gay marriage in Massachusetts got mailings this weekend from Robinson touting his "progressive" values, which include support for gay marriage. Because, of course, nobody would ever send out such stuff in an attempt to deliberately turn people against Robinson, right?

WBUR reports on KennedySeat.com, the anonymously penned (um, typed) Web site that's keeping tabs on the Senate race like nobody's business. Reporter Monica Brady-Myerov gets the writer to dish a few details about himself (he's 29 and worked on Beacon Hill) and reports the site has put the fear of God into at least some people working on campaigns:
... But [the anonymity] is also a concern, according to an aide on one of the Senate campaigns who doesn't want to be named for fear of crossing the influential Web site. ...
Which gets a total of 550 visitors a day, most of them, apparently, campaign insiders.
