Althea Garrison, a former state representative and former member of the Boston City Council, plans to run for city councilor at-large once again this year. Garrison filed a statement of candidacy to run, a spokesman for the City of Boston told NewBostonPost in an email message this week.
Danielle Allen was a conservative pro-life Republican in college before she did an internship at National Review, she told an interviewer Sunday.
Allen, a Harvard professor who is exploring a run for governor of Massachusetts, said her family was conservative and that her father even ran for U.S. Senate as a Reagan Republican in California. Then she got an internship the summer after her junior year at National Review, a conservative magazine in New York City founded by William F. Buckley Jr., and the experience, she said, changed her political outlook.
