Matt Benedetti
Public safety and the 10th Suffolk district
By mattbenedetti4rep - 9/8/10 - 9:28 amAs a candidate for state representative in West Roxbury, Roslindale and Brookline, I have had the opportunity to meet several remarkable people in our neighborhood. The 10th boasts a high percentage of active and retired public safety personnel, and I am proud to count many as supporters. As a Massachusetts National Guardsman and a former 911 operator with the Boston Police, I am keenly aware of the importance of public safety.
Roslindale teacher, National Guardsman running for Mike Rush's seat
By adamg - 1/27/10 - 12:23 amWicked Local Roslindale reports Kelly Tynan, formerly director of West Roxbury Main Streets and now a teacher at the Conley School, is running for the state representative's seat that Rush is vacating to run for Marian Walsh's state Senate seat. Walsh has yet to say if she's seeking re-election.
Also running, Wicked Local reports: Matt Benedetti. Benedetti tried to run in 2008 against Rush but the Secretary of State ruled too many of the signatures on his petitions were invalid.
