Healey, Diehl To Top General Election Ballot: 2022 Primary Results

WAKEFIELD, MA — The state primary is now largely in the rear view mirror after voters headed to the polls in Wakefield on Tuesday to settle a series of contested statewide races.

Though the results of some races remained to be determined into early Wednesday morning, the Associated Press (AP) called the Democratic governor's race in favor of Gubernatorial Candidate Maura Healey shortly after polls closed on Tuesday.

The AP then called the Republican race in favor of Geoff Diehl later on Tuesday night, with Diehl edging out competitor Chris Doughty to set up a general election race with Healey.

William Galvin won the Democratic Secretary of State race to face Republican Rayla Campbell in the general election in November, the AP said.

Andrea Campbell then emerged as the declared winner in the Democratic Attorney General race, according to the AP. She will face Republican James McMahon, III in November.

Kimberly Driscoll was declared the winner of a three-way race for the Democratic Lieutenant Governor nomination. That sets her up to face Leah Allen, who was called as the winner of the Republican Lieutenant Governor race on Wednesday.

The AP called Diana DiZoglio's State Auditor race with Chris Dempsey early Wednesday morning in favor of DiZoglio. She will face Republican Anthony Amore in the general election.

While Tuesday's primary election didn't seeing contested local races, it did finalize a general election matchup between Democratic Sen. Jason Lewis and Republican Ed Dombroski.

Dombrowski, a Wakefield town councilor, ran unopposed on the primary ballot, making him the presumptive Republican nominee.

He will now face Lewis, who ran unopposed in the Democratic primary, for the Fifth Middlesex District seat that Lewis has held since 2014.

Wakefield did not publicly release its full unofficial election results on Wednesday night. Patch will share those results as they become available.
