BOSTON:
This year the longest-serving mayor in the city's history, Thomas Menino, decided not to seek re-election after 20 years in office. Incumbent mayors in Boston are rarely defeated.
Boston's political scene is crowded with Democrats of Irish descent. One of them, Marty Walsh, a legislator and labor leader whose campaign was funded by a huge amount of union donations/support, beat out City Councilor John Connolly by 4 points.
This is Boston's new mayor, Marty Walsh:

This is the man who Joe Biden called to congratulate for winning Boston's mayoral election, Marty Walsh (president of Gateway Public Solutions):

I guess then-legislator now-mayor Marty Walsh need not worry that his cell calls were being monitored.
