Senator Ed Markey successfully defended his seat against Joe Kennedy in the Democratic primary. Markey, a long-serving Massachusetts politician, has been in Congress for over 40 years, transitioning from the House to the Senate in 2013. Known for his progressive stance, he co-authored the Green New Deal and received endorsements from prominent figures like Elizabeth Warren and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Meanwhile, Kennedy was backed by Nancy Pelosi. All Democratic incumbents, including Richard Neal, won their primaries, and are expected to easily secure reelection in Massachusetts.
