The ballot is fairly thin across the state with the majority of state representative, state senator, and federal legislator elections uncontested at the primary level.
Locally, there are only a few contested elections. There are several contested Democratic primaries for State Committee man and woman in Worcester-area districts.
A full list of candidates running in the primary is available from the secretary of the commonwealth's website.
