Barney Frank - DMA-4 - Not Running for Re-election: image the LMagazine.com
From: myfoxboston.com: Barney Frank, the Democrat who co-authored the Dodd-Frank Credit Bill, and was the major architect behind the Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae fiasco, will announce today that he is not seeking re-election. In the mid-term, Frank struggled against a newcomer, Sean Bielat, a Republican, in what was, at the time, a heavily gerrymandered district.
The Massachusetts Redistricting that just took place, made Frank's position more vulnerable, removing the large urban area of New Bedford, and giving Frank conservative suburban areas in the Worcester Area.
It is not, at this time, known, who will run to replace Frank in the 2012 election cycle.
