State Rep Candidate Forum June 29th

A state representative candidate forum will be held on Sunday, June 29 from 7-9PM at Tufts University’s Barnum Hall, located at 163 Packard Avenue.

The moderator will be former state representative Carl Sciortino. The Medford Democrat resigned from his seat in April to lead the AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts.

The five candidates for state representative are Erin DiBenedetto, Sharon Guzik, Nick Lanzilli, all from Medford, and Somerville’s Christine Barber and Craig Rourke.

All have been invited to attend the forum, which is sponsored by Medford for Massachusetts, Progressive Democrats of Somerville, and Cambridge-Somerville for Change.

The district includes parts of Medford and Somerville.

The primary election for the seat will take place on Sept. 9.
