Mass is pretty Democrat leaning IIRC

Which makes the effective closure of Boston, MA, USA and the
surrounding communities for the Democratic convention even more
mind-boggling. I mean sheesh, look at a map. Go on Interstate 93
north to Woburn (where it meets Route 128/I-95). Now, go back south,
through boston, to Braintree (where it splits off at Route 3).
They're effectively closing that entire stretch of highway. Not to
mention what that'll do to I-90 (Mass Pike) and Storrow Drive and the
rest of the ways to get to Logan. I'd wager that if it was the
Republican convention they wouldn't even think of doing this.
