There was only one contested election within JP's Beacon Hill delegation. As expected, Sonia Chang-Díaz, D-Jamaica Plain, cruised to reelection over Republican David James Wyatt for the Second Suffolk Senate seat.

The unofficial tally was 90 percent for Chang-Díaz to 10 for Wyatt.

Chang-Díaz, a JP resident and first Latina to become a state senator in Massachusetts, won her fourth term.

The rest of the JP delegation ran unopposed. Here is a list of state representatives whose district includes at least part of JP:

  • Russell Holmes, 6th Suffolk
  • Liz Malia, 11th Suffolk
  • Jeffrey Sánchez, 15th Suffolk

Once we have detailed information on how JP voted for governor, the four ballot questions and other races not listed here, we will post that separately.
