Poll: Fourth Congressional District Candidates

In the early going, who do you support in the Fourth Congressional District race?

 

Since long-time congressman Barney Frank (D-Newton) announced late last year that he would not run for re-election in the Fourth Congressional District, candidates from both political parties have stepped forward to run for the seat.

Most recently, Rachel Brown (D-North Quincy) has thrown her hat into the rink. The Democrat challenged Frank in the primaries during Frank's last run in 2010.

Sean Bielat (R-Norfolk) is also giving it another run after he gave Frank a run for his money two years ago. Now a Norfolk resident, he looks to be the early front-runner on the Republican side.

Bielat, however, is trailing Joseph Kennedy III (D-Brookline), according to a recent UMass-Lowell/Boston Herald poll. The son of Joseph Kennedy II and grandson of Robert F. Kennedy officially announced his candidacy Thursday.

So Wrentham, we want to know ...

Today's question: In the early going, who do you support in the Fourth Congressional District race to represent Wrentham?

Paul Heroux - middle class person from the district
7 years in youth development management
4 years in criminal justice administrator
3 years international experience
1.5 years as a local economic and public policy columnist

Joe Kennedy - not middle class and not from the district
2 years Peace Corps post-college job
2 years entery level prosecutor

this primary really should be a no brainer
