GOP's Geoff Diehl to Newsmax: Globe Wrong for Campaign Slam

Massachusetts GOP gubernatorial nominee Geoff Diehl, with less than one week before Election Day, slammed The Boston Globe as a "subset of the Democrat Party" for reporting that a "haphazard campaign strategy" is hurting his chances of pulling out a win in the traditionally deep blue state.

"We've been campaigning for a year-and-a-half," Diehl said on Newsmax's "Wake Up America." "When I jumped in, Gov. [Charlie] Baker hadn't decided if he was going to run. He decided not to run against me. I beat a challenger who spent $2.5 million against me, and now I'm taking on more.

"We definitely have a race. We have an operation, and we've been doing incredibly well."

Diehl's Democrat rival is Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, and Diehl told Newsmax that his campaign's TV ads are "pinning her to the decision to block natural gas pipelines."
