It’s been a rough few days for Jay Gonzalez. A new Suffolk University poll shows him trailing Governor Charlie Baker by 27 percent in the governor’s race, and his plan to tax the endowments of deep-pocketed colleges and universities hasn’t gone over too well. But all is not necessarily lost. In this episode of The Scrum, the Boston Globe’s Joan Vennochi joins Peter Kadzis and Adam Reilly to discuss three things Gonzalez might be able to use to his advantage between now and November: the terrifying gas blasts in the Merrimack Valley; Baker’s endorsement of State Rep Geoff Diehl in the U.S. Senate race; and the enthusiastic support of Senator Elizabeth Warren, Diehl’s opponent.
