Cambridge political pundit Glenn S. Koocher ‘71—citing the last city election’s meager Libertarian turnout of 107 votes—doesn’t think that Condit’s candidacy stands much chance.

And Koocher questions Condit’s assertion that the political tide is changing in Cambridge.
“It’s a different demographic in that there are a number of people who weren’t here before—but honestly the perspective isn’t hard-core Libertarian,” he says.
