Massachusetts Special Election Primary

      Congressman Ed Harkey has defeated fellow Congressman, Stephen Lynch in the Democratic primary in the Massachusetts special election to fill Secretary of State John Kerry's Senate seat. Former Navy seal Gabriel Gomez will be the GOP candidate, winning the Republican primary. Many  assume that in very democratic states, like Massachusetts, the Democratic primary is pretty much the actual election. However, Gabriel Gomez is in his own words "a new kind of Republican". He is a very likable man, and does not associate himself with the Tea Party. Ed Harkey and the other Democrats may feel like this election will be an easy win, but expect Mr. Gomez to put up a strong fight.
