The Boston Herald is reporting that Sean Bielat has taken out papers to run for the United State Senate special election. In addition Plymouth County GOP Chair, Vince Cogliano, has told the Boston Herald that Michael Sullivan is 98% there in making an announcement.

Bielat joins former judge and state representative Dan Winslow of Norfolk andConhasset businessman Gabriel Gomez in the Republican primary. Former U.S. attorney Michael Sullivan also is considering a run. Former Plymouth Republican state committee member Christopher Fava said Sullivan was expected to make an announcement as soon as today. Plymouth County Republican Chairman Vince Cogliano said Sullivan has told supporters he's "98 percent in."

Bielat jumps in, and Cogliano says Sullivan 98% of the way there | 10 comments

A big primary would be great for the party. But I'm suprised that Bielat's running because he starting look like a perenial candidate. (0.00 / 0)

Bielat ? (0.00 / 0)

I know that we're Mass Republicans, but I don't think two congressional defeats doesn't put you in good position for US Senate.

It's a different race. Also, (0.00 / 0)

I doubt many of his donors blame him for losing vs Barney Frank, but do know now that a Republican, especially in a Special Election, can win.

How many 2010 donors... (0.00 / 0)

...gave to him in 2012? He certainly did not have the money in in '12, what makes you think they'll give now?

I agree. (0.00 / 0)

He has a lot of talents that he could apply as a statewide candidate for treasurer, auditor or SOS. This one is just not gonna happen especially with a former US Atty and a guy who's obviously self-financing splashing around in the pool.
