Name: James Warfield
Residence: Worcester
Age: 60
Profession: Retired clerk for the federal government
Party: Democrat
Leaning: Voted for Reilly in primary. After debate, leaning toward Healey.

Debate reaction: Warfield was not going to vote after Reilly lost the primary, but he is considering Healey, which he said is ``kind of odd, considering I'm a Democrat." But he liked her ideas on the income tax rollback, merit pay for teachers, crime, and especially immigration. He also found her argument that the Democratic-run Legislature needs a Republican to balance it out compelling, and he shared her concerns about Patrick's ties with the Democratic congressmen and special interest groups.
