Down Ballot Races For State Legislature To Watch

     With so much attention focused on the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts and on the First District Congressional race, some state primaries have received scant attention.

    A State Senator from Springfield is facing a primary challenge.  Three people are running in each of two House districts in western Massachusetts where the incumbents did not seek reelection.

    WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill discusses these so-called “down ballot” contests with Matt Szafranski, Editor-in-Chief of Western Mass Politics & Insight.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
