[UPDATE, Sept. 7, 2022.] With 90% reporting, the N.Y. Times lists
Quinn prevailing with 65% of the vote to McMahon's 35%. This result is
not surprising with a well known, insider incumbent. McMahon's strong
showing as an out-of-the-box challenger will, I hope, keep the DA's
office mindful of its accountability to the public. And I hope we'll see
McMahon again in politics and public service soon.
Shannon McMahon and Thomas Quinn, candidates in the September 6 primary for Bristol County, Mass., district attorney, faced off August 12 in what South Coast Today described as a "bare-knuckles debate," sponsored by Dartmouth media and available on YouTube, below.
McMahon is a former student of my advisership. I assessed the race in the spring.
