Notes:  Sen. Ed Markey (D), elected to the U.S. Senate in a special election in 2013 after serving 37 years in the U.S. House, won a full term, defeating Brian J. Herr (R) by a wide margin.  Herr, an account executive at WESTCO Distribution and Hopkinton selectman, had also run for Congress in CD-2 in 2010, finishing second in the Republican primary.  Both Markey and Herr were unopposed for their party's nominations.  Independent Bruce Skarin, a computer modeler who has sought to focus attention on money in politics, failed to qualify for the ballot.  There was only one debate, on NECN's Broadside on Oct. 17 (>).  According to the Center for Responsive Politics, the Markey campaign had a multi-million dollar war chest, while the Herr campaign raised and spent about $120,000.
