The new face of Boston voters

Lovett writes: "In Ward 20—typically high-voting neighborhoods of West Roxbury and Roslindale outside the 7th Congressional District—the turnout percentage exceeded the citywide figure"

The Boston Globe never acknowledges that about one-third of Ward 20 is Roslindale, and instead uses "Ward 20" and "West Roxbury" interchangeably. But Lovett got it right.

The highest turnout precinct in Boston was Ward 20, Precinct 4 - in Roslindale (Fallon Field/Peter's Hill), not West Roxbury - with a turnout of 49.28%, vs. the citywide turnout of 24.86%.

This precinct is in the Congressional District represented by Steven Lynch, who lost the precinct to challenger Brianna Wu, 46% to 47%.
