Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition has the details, including links to the poll and Lake research Partners' analysis of the poll.  But first, Bay Staters need to take action with the help of this email from MassEquality sent out Thursday.  Time is short.

    A poll just released by Lake Research Partners shows that 76% of likely voters in Massachusetts, including 81% of women, support H1728--An Act Relative to Gender-Based Discrimination and Hate Crimes. These results prove what we knew all along: ending harmful discrimination against the transgender community is a Massachusetts value that state legislators need to make a priority.
