The Massachusetts Joint Physical Custody Ballot Question

won overwhelmingly yesterday!

 

Congratulations to Massachusetts Fathers & Families, the

Fatherhood Coalition, the Children's Rights Council of MA,

Massachusetts, the Berkshire Fatherhood Coalition, and others.

 

According to Ned Holstein of Fathers and Families of Massachusetts,

the coordinator of the effort, "approximately 85% voted for joint physical

custody of children...The lopsided margin of victory was greater than

that of any elected official in Massachusetts, including John Kerry,

Barney Frank, or Jim McGovern. In two towns, it passed by about 2-1...

and in every other town the margin was even larger, often approaching

8-1 or 9-1. Approximately 600,000 Massachusetts citizens voted on our

non-binding ballot question, representing every area of the state, every

ethnic group and every social class."
