[edit]It would be nice if this included the fact that the 4th Congressional district has been redrawn, and is believed to be more Republican.
- Is that true? If its covered in reliable sources I don't think it would be an issue. jheiv talk contribs 06:02, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
This is certainly true. <a href="http://www.wbur.org/2011/11/30/fourth-congressional-district">The new district map can be seen here.</a> The new 4th District added areas such as Raynham and Hopkinton, which are heavily Republican. It also removed New Bedford, which is a stronghold of Democrats.
This was also a contributing reason to <a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/The-Vote/2011/1128/Why-is-Rep.-Barney-Frank-retiring-VIDEO">Barney Frank retiring.</a> http://www.wbur.org/2011/11/30/fourth-congressional-district — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.127.138.166 (talk) 23:49, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

[edit]However one thinks about Sean Bielat's positions, this article is timely and newsworthy because Sean Bielat is involved in a local highly visible head-on-head race in a very polarized election (nationally and locally and regionally polarized) where important national outcomes are at issue. Maybe San Francisco Wikipedians don't see this, but New England Wikipedians DO see it.
