Marlborough State Reps, Senator Will Go Unchallenged In 2024
The filing deadline to run for state House and Senate seats passed on Tuesday. Here's who's running in the Marlborough area.
MARLBOROUGH, MA — The 2024 presidential race between Joe Biden and Donald Trump will be the marquee race this November, but voters in Massachusetts will also be voting to elect (or re-elect) state House and Senate candidates.
But 2024 will be a relatively sleepy year for state legislative races. Just 40 state representatives and 11 senators are facing challengers this year, according to the Secretary of the Commonwealth — including Marlborough's legislative delegation.
The deadline to file to run for legislative seats passed on Tuesday, offering a glimpse into the races that will be on the ballot in November. State Rep. Danielle Gregoire, D-Marlborough, and state Sen. Jamie Eldridge are among those with no challengers this year. State Rep. Carmine Gentile, D-Sudbury, who represents northeastern Marlborough, is also going unchallenged.
