Election 2012: State Ballot Question Results
Voters made decisions on car repairs, assisted suicide and medical marijuana in the statewide election.

An estatic Warren addressed a crowd of hundreds of excited supporters at the Copley Fairmont Plaza hotel in Boston on Tuesday night. "We did what everyone thought was impossible," she said.
