MTF & @MassINCPolling's 2nd annual competitiveness poll shows that residents value living in MA, but that hasn’t stopped the rising cost of living from being the top concern on people’s minds. Check out coverage of the poll in @MASSterList: massterlist.com/p/beacon-hil…

Thirty-five years ago, the city of Chelsea started the week without enough money to pay its teachers, police officers or firefighters and ended the week as the first Massachusetts community since the Great Depression to be taken over by the state. massterlist.com/p/35-years-l…
NEW: Mariah Lancaster has ended her 6th Congressional District primary campaign and endorsed state Rep. Tram Nguyen.
Two 20-something candidates for open seat know firsthand why young people leave
State Rep. Tram Nguyen has lots of company in her bid to become the next member of Congress from the 6th District, with five other Democrats and a Republican in the race.
The contest to fill the seat she’s leaving behind on Beacon Hill is lonelier.
"That's been the biggest surprise for me," Andover Democrat Connor Murray said. "I expected a five-way primary, a Democratic primary, and more than one Republican."
But that’s not how it shook out. Murray’s is the only name on the ballot in Tuesday’s primaries for the seat that represents Boxford and parts of Andover, North Andover and Tewksbury. Another candidate, Andover Republican Chris Shepley, is running a write-in campaign, hoping to earn the 150 votes needed to become his party’s nominee in the November general.
Whatever happens in September and November, the 18th Essex District could end up sending the State House a new youngest lawmaker: Shepley is 21 and Murray 23. (Lowell Rep. Tara Hong, elected two years ago at age 24, is currently the youngest state legislator).

Neither candidate is new to politics. The district has flipped between Democrats and Republicans over the past two decades. Either way, this year it will shift to a new generation.

Possibility is what clean energy -- offshore wind and hydropower -- represented to the crowd of lawmakers, advocates and officials who gathered on the grass 10 years ago to watch Gov. Baker sign the law that pushed Massachusetts into its post-Cape Wind era of renewable energy.

After puttering around on the runway early in the week, the Legislature by Friday night was flying at cruising altitude, heading off into the sunset of campaign season but aware that they could be rerouted to Beacon Hill at any time.
