Incumbent James Timilty (D-Walpole) has taken the Massachusetts Senate Bristol & Norfolk District seat. Unofficially, Timilty took the seat with nearly double the votes for opponent Jeff Bailey. "I'm very lucky to be in the position that I am," said Timilty. "Privileged and honored to represent the Bristol and Norfolk and, of course, being a guy from Walpole, representing the town of Walpole, it can't be any better than that. "We're very happy. Obviously, you spend a lot of time working for the communities that you represent on the issues that matter to them.
