Beat the Bay State Team Challenge

Your team has piled on board a ferry to Martha's Vineyard! 

Massachusetts is currently in the middle of redistricting based on results from the latest census, which may change who represents you on Beacon Hill as a state rep or senator (if you live in MA). 

In 1977, distressed over losing their guaranteed seat in the Massachusetts General Court, inhabitants of Martha's Vineyard considered the possibility of secession from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, either to become part of another state (having received offers from both Vermont and Hawaii), reincorporating as a separate U.S. territory, or as the nation's 51st state. Read about it in a Martha's Vineyard Magazine article from 2007.
