"To achieve that goal he will have to fend off a primary challenge from Rep. Seth Moulton, the North Shore Democrat who is arguing that the party must do away with the status quo and embrace a new generation of leaders. The primary winner will likely face Republican John Deaton, the cryptocurrency advocate and personal injury lawyer who failed to unseat Sen. Elizabeth Warren last year."
""Ed Markey is that bold, visionary, courageous, effective leader for Massachusetts and America, a battle-tested fighter for a better future, a champion for universal health care, climate action, for reproductive freedom, for education, for innovation and nuclear non-proliferation," Burns said in a video published online. "He is our firewall in the Senate, standing up for social and economic justice, scientific progress, protecting civil rights and delivering real change that improves real lives.""
Sen. Ed Markey seeks reelection and faces a primary challenge from Rep. Seth Moulton. Moulton urges the Democratic Party to move beyond the status quo and elevate a new generation of leaders. The likely general election opponent is Republican John Deaton, a cryptocurrency advocate and personal injury lawyer who recently failed to unseat Sen. Elizabeth Warren. Markey leads in early polling but may face attacks over his age and progressive positions. Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns publicly endorsed Markey, describing him as a battle-tested champion for universal health care, climate action, reproductive freedom, education, innovation, nuclear non-proliferation, civil rights, and scientific progress.
