State Senator Daniel A. Wolf (D – Harwich) has issued an endorsement for the Barnstable County Board of County Commissioners race, and he is backing his one-time rival Sheila R. Lyons of Wellfleet.
“Sheila Lyons is a leader for Barnstable County who is not afraid to take on difficult issues and bring people together to solve challenges,” Sen. Wolf said in a press release. “From broadband internet access to wastewater, Sheila has worked hard for the last four years. Sheila has served us well and I’m proud to support her.”
Sen. Wolf and Ms. Lyons squared off in 2010 for the Democratic nomination in the state senate race.

Andrew V. Putnam, candidate for the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates, has put together a campaign ad you can check out online at YouTube:
On another note, Mr. Putnam is calling for an open debate this month with his opponent, the incumbent delegate Julia C. Taylor. No word on whether she’s accepted.
I don’t know if I’ll ever get used to someone treating the assembly race like a real political campaign. It’s so weird!
