Analysis: Ed Markey Beats Joe Kennedy In Senate Primary

WAMC

     Senator Edward Markey beat back the Democratic primary challenge from U.S. Rep. Joseph Kennedy III in Massachusetts.

   It was a remarkable recovery for Markey, who trailed badly in early polling.   It was an historic defeat for a Kennedy in Massachusetts.

  WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill discussed the much-watched race with political science professor Tim Vercellotti, director of the Western New England University Polling Institute.

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.
