Please note: The Boston Ward 19 Democratic Committee’s endorsement meeting and vote, on Monday, August 22, 2022, preceded by several days the troublesome accusations that have affected the Suffolk County District Attorney race. The Committee has no provision for rescinding or changing endorsements, and there is insufficient time for it to take any other actions before the primary.
