Sen. Warren Campaigns For Boston Mayor Marty Walsh

BOSTON (AP) — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren attended a campaign event for fellow Democratic Boston Mayor Marty Walsh.

Warren campaigned with Walsh and his supporters Sunday afternoon at Doyle's Pub, a popular spot with local residents and politicians in the city's Jamaica Plain neighborhood.

Walsh is facing off against City Councilor Tito Jackson, also a Democrat, in next month's mayoral contest.

Later in the day, Warren campaigned with Democratic state Senate candidate Paul Feeney in Attleboro.

Sunday evening Warren attended a dinner at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute in Boston.

The dinner honored former Secretary of State — and former Democratic U.S. senator from Massachusetts — John Kerry with the institute's annual Lifetime Achievement Award for Outstanding Public Service.

Warren is up for re-election next year.
