Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey Seeks Second Term

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey is running for re-election as the state’s governor and remains unchallenged in the primary. The Democratic governor is likely to face a Republican opponent, who will be determined in the upcoming primary. CEO of Abiomed, Mike Monogue, leads ahead of former Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority administrator Brian Shortsleeve in the polls for the Republican candidacy. Analysts expect Healey to maintain her position in the predominantly Democratic state. The polls will close at 8 p.m. EDT.
