Overview and Live Results: Massachusetts Primary

Massachusetts has the primary calendar to itself on Tuesday. Next week, the final primaries before the November 5 general election will take place in Delaware, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island.

Massachusetts Primary

Per the Associated Press, "Democrats have a lock on the Bay State’s congressional delegation, with both U.S. Senate seats and all nine U.S. House seats firmly in their column. They also hold lopsided supermajorities in both chambers of the state legislature, where all seats are up for election in November."

On this page, we've included the only two contested congressional primaries. Visit All Massachusetts Results if you are looking for primary results for the state legislature.

Polls close at 8:00 PM Eastern Time.

U.S. Senate

Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren is seeking a 3rd term; she is unopposed for renomination.

There are three Republicans vying to take her on in the general election. The nominee will have an uphill battle in this deep blue state.

U.S. House

All nine Democratic incumbents are seeking reelection. None of them has drawn a primary challenge.

The only contested primary is in District 8, where three Republicans are looking to take on Rep. Stephen Lynch. This includes videographer Robert Burke, the 2022 nominee. He lost by a 70% to 30% margin to Lynch that year. 

No Republicans are running in Districts 1 through 7. The Democratic incumbents there join the Uncontested Seats list. In these 36 districts, only one major party is on the November ballot.
