Don't expect Taunton mayor Shaunna O'Connell to be a candidate in the 2022 Massachusetts gubernatorial race.
O'Connell had been making calls to various people within the Massachusetts Republican Party as she considered a run for the post in the wake of news last week that both incumbent governor Charlie Baker and lieutenant governor Karyn Polito won't run in 2022. However, sources close to the MassGOP told NewBostonPost over the weekend that O'Connell is not going to end up running.
