Tuesday was primary day in Massachusetts, and voters had many critical decisions to make as they headed to the polls.
The polls closed at 8 p.m. across the state, except in Barnstable where a problem with a safe containing ballots led town officials to extend voting until midnight.
Among the contested races on the ballot was the GOP governor's primary between Geoff Diehl and Chris Doughty. Republican incumbent Charlie Baker opted not to run for re-election this year.
Other key races include the Democratic attorney general's contest between Andrea Campbell and Shannon Liss-Riordan, the Democratic Secretary of State's race between incumbent William Galvin and Tanisha Sullivan, and the Suffolk District Attorney's race between Kevin Hayden and Ricardo Arroyo, both of whom have been faced with their share of controversy in recent weeks.
