Therese Murray Wins Primary With 87 Percent of Vote

Therese Murray handily defeated Stephen Michael Palmer to win the Democratic ticket for the Plymouth-Barnstable Senate District.

"It was get out the vote, we worked very hard," Murray told WATD. "What a difference two years makes."

"People were beeping and waving and saying we only came out to vote for you. One man said he only pulled a Democratic ticket for you and Tom Calter, so it was pretty nice. We've seen a complete difference with the way people feel than they did two years ago. There’s a much better feeling and much better atmosphere than there was two years ago."

Friday morning, Murray will speak at the Plymouth Area Chamber of Commerce's legislative breakfast.

 She'll face Tom Keyes in November.
