Tuesday, March 5, is Super Tuesday in Massachusetts, as residents will take to the polls for the primary elections. The major race here in Framingham: a pair of groups are contending to be voted onto the Framingham Democratic Committee, which aims to promote and support the Democratic Party at the local, state, and national levels.
