Governor Baker Will Not Seek Reelection

The 2022 Massachusetts Governor's race now appears to be wide-open after incumbent Charlie Baker's announcement Wednesday that he will not be running. 

On the Democratic side, Attorney General Maura Healey, who has long-been speculated to be interested in a run for Governor, yesterday promised that she would make a decision soon. 

The Globe reports U.S. Labor Secretary and former Boston Mayor Marty Walsh is taking a look at the race, according to sources. 

Meanwhile, the Republican Baker yesterday dismissed a claim that his decision was influenced by an endorsement snub from former President Trump, who instead has given his support to GOP candidate Geoff Diehl.
