WASHINGTON (AP) — Massachusetts Republicans will choose candidates to challenge U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren and U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch in state primaries
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., speaks during the Democratic National Convention Thursday, Aug. 22, 2024, in Chicago. WASHINGTON — Massachusetts Republicans will choose candidates to challenge U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren and U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch in state primaries on Tuesday. The contests top the list of federal, state and local races that will be held across the commonwealth.
In the 8th Congressional District in eastern Massachusetts, Democratic U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch faces no primary challenge in his race for a 12th full term. Vying for the Republican nomination are videographer Rob Burke, health care worker and retired Verizon employee Jim Govatsos and bar owner Daniel Kelly. Burke challenged Lynch in the 2022 general election, receiving 30% of the vote, compared to 70% for Lynch. Biden won this Boston-area district in 2020 with 67% of the vote.
Haley did well just outside of Boston in places like Cambridge, Newton and Somerville, but the statewide Republican primary candidate who follows Trump’s example of winning some of the commonwealth’s most populous cities and towns such Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Lowell, Brockton and Quincy would have a clear path to victory.
There are no automatic recounts in Massachusetts. Candidates may request a recount for statewide or districtwide elections if the vote margin is 0.5% of the total vote or less. The AP may declare a winner in a race that is eligible for a recount if it can determine the lead is too large for a recount or legal challenge to change the outcome.There were just shy of 5 million registered voters in Massachusetts as of the presidential primary on Feb. 24.
