    Northampton City Council President Ryan O’Donnell has launched a campaign for Massachusetts State Senate. 

    He is one of four people who have announced plans to run for the Hampshire, Franklin, Worcester District seat that had been held since 1991 by Amherst Democrat Stan Rosenberg.

    O’Donnell had been a candidate for the Massachusetts House seat of the late Peter Kocot, but when Rosenberg resigned, he decided to begin a write-in campaign for the Senate.

    WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with O’Donnell.
