Maura Healey Endorses Ayanna Pressley For Congress

October 5, 2022

Massachusetts attorney general Maura Healey made an endorsement in a Massachusetts congressional race this week.

Healey, the Democratic nominee for governor, endorsed U.S. Representative Ayanna Pressley (D-Hyde Park) in her election bid. Pressley’s campaign team announced the news to Politico on Wednesday, October 5. Neither Healey nor Pressley issued a public statement on the matter.

Pressley is running against Republican nominee Donnie Palmer of Dorchester. Palmer has run for city council in Boston unsuccessfully twice:  first in 2015 and once again in 2021.

Healey is running for governor against former state representative Geoff Diehl (R-Whitman).

Healey is running with Salem mayor Kim Driscoll as the Democratic Party’s nominee for lieutenant governor; Diehl is running with former state representative Leah Cole Allen (R-Peabody) as the Republican Party’s nominee for lieutenant governor.
