A Boston Globe article

http://www.boston.com/business/technology/articles/2005/10/25/galvin_attacks_software_proposal/

says that the Massachussetts Secretary of State William Galvin and a number
of state senators are opposed to the idea of going to OpenDocument formats.
You can contact Secreatary Galvin's office at cis at sec.state.ma.us if
you have any thoughts on this matter.  Check the article for other
politicians you might want to contact as well.
