3rd Worcester - Goguen's Seat Up For Grabs?
State representative Emile Goguen ("D"-Fitchburg) said in December that he was leaning toward retirement and now folks are lining up to toss their hats in the ring.
Former Fitchburg Mayor, Mary Whitney is considering a run. She was mayor of Fitchburg until 2002 when Whitney, a Democrat was unseated by Dan H. Mylott, a Republican who... is also considering a run for Goguen's seat.
City Counselor Stephen DiNatale is running with Goguen's endorsement, and has already formed a committee.
In the same article they also mention that Susan Koeck might also run again. She ran against Goguen unsuccessfully in 2004.
I don't have a lot of knowledge of the inside of the Fitchburg political scene, but I do know that Whitney and DiNatale are fairly conservative. Seems lots of Democrats out this way tend to be conservative. Go figure.
