Two of Malden’s print media today have taken up a firm position behind Councilor-at-Large Craig Spadafora in his campaign to succeed Richard Tisei as the next state senator representing the Middlesex-Essex district. The Malden Advocate and Malden Evening News, through commentary pieces, cite Spadafora as the best choice to take over this seat and help steer the Commonwealth in a new direction.

Late Tuesday night, October 26, the Boston Globe released a Campaign 2010 endorsement editorial, calling attention to the overwhelming lack of a two-party system in the Massachusetts Legislature. The article specifically mentioned six individuals vying for a chance to add some much-needed balance to the Commonwealth’s lawmaking body. Among those receiving endorsement was Malden City Councilor-at-Large Craig Spadafora, cited as a “solid choice” to replace Senator Richard Tisei, who is running alongside Charlie Baker as lieutenant governor.
