Wu is already facing opposition from Josh Kraft, the son of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, along with Boston community activist Domingos DaRosa. There was speculation that Thomas O'Brien, the CEO of real estate developer The HYM Investment Group, would throw a hat in the ring but he ultimately decided not to pursue the office.
Wu said she is embracing resistance to the Trump administration as her campaign picks up.

“We are in tough difficult times," Wu said Saturda.y "I think every family across the city knows and feels that right now. We need to come together and fight for our families and our future. Boston has been a target because we stand for everything that the administration is trying to tear down. It’s about the public good and the investments and health care, public education research that saves lives and people who for generations have built their communities up to be a place where we take care of our neighbors.”
If the competition remains competitive, a primary election will be held on Sept. 9 to narrow the field.
