APTurnout was relatively light across Massachusetts on Tuesday as voters
chose which Republican and Democratic candidates will win their party primaries
and go on to campaign in the state's second special U.S. Senate
election in four years.The race to fill Secretary of State John Kerry's
former seat has been overshadowed by the Boston bombings, though turnout
in the city was running slightly ahead of another special U.S. Senate
primary three years ago in part because of an additional local race
on Tuesday's ballot, the state's top elections official said.Even before
the bombings, the campaign had failed to capture the attention of voters
compared with the 2010 special election following the death of longtime
Sen. Edward Kennedy. Former Republican Sen. Scott Brown won the seat but
was ousted last year in another high-profile race by Democratic challenger
Elizabeth Warren.Two Democrats, both members of the state's congressional
delegation, and three Republicans are vying for their parties' nominations.A
win would help Senate Democrats maintain a caucus edge of 55-45 as
they press forward on major issues like immigration and gun control.The
Boston Marathon bombs disrupted the political race, forcing the candidates
to temporarily suspend their campaigns. The bombings also brought national
security and terrorism issues to the fore in an election that was
expected to turn on questions of the economy, gun control, taxes, immigration
and aborti
President Obama intends to nominate veteran Rep. Melvin Watt to head the
Federal Housing Finance Agency, the government regulator that oversees lending
giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and he has chosen a former
cable and wireless industry lobbyist to head the Federal Communications
Commission, according to White House officials.If confirmed by the Senate
for the FHFA post, Watt, a North Carolina Democrat who has been
in Congress for 20 years, would replace Edward DeMarco, an appointee of
President George W. Bush, who has been a target of housing advocates,
liberal groups and Democratic lawmakers.Also on Wednesday, Obama plans to
nominate Tom Wheeler, one of his top campaign fundraisers, as the country's
top telecommunications regulator. He is expected to name FCC Commissioner
Mignon Clyburn to serve as acting chairwoman while Wheeler awaits Senate
confirmation.Wheeler raised more than $500,000 for Obama's re-election effort,
according to data provided by the campaign. He also contributed more than
$17,000 combined to Obama's re-election and to several Senate campaigns,
including Virginia Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine's successful effort.Wheeler
is former head of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
and the National Cable Television Association. Since 2005, he has been a
venture capitalist at Core Capital Partners. Wheeler would replace outgoing
chairman Julius Genachowski, who announced in March he would be stepping

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">at could eventually affect
our national security in the short term," the source said. "And we're
not talking midterm or long-term, this is the short-term."The source said
"it's a daily frustration."Another threat is a larger terrorist haven that
continues to build in parts of Libya and North Africa. Those working
the region in the interest of U.S. security say the ball is
being dropped by top leaders at the White House, Pentagon and State
Department."Benghazi, the second-highest population of foreign fighters,
and the war in Iraq came from Benghazi, second to Saudi Arabia,
so we are talking about a historic location and region that has
fed foreign fighters to kill Americans, and kill other coalition forces,"
one source said."The analysts, the intelligence experts all say the same
thing, that if we just ignore the situation as it presents itself,
eventually it will be another invasion will have to take place for
us to eventually turn the tide."He says the region also remains a
weapons hub after the overthrow of former leader Muammar Qaddafi in 2011,
which saw massive stockpiles of weapons in Libya move freely across the
Mediterranean and in many cases into Syria. While the U.S. has claimed
a more active role to find and remove an estimated 20,000 shoulder-launched
missiles called MANPADS, some Americans working the area say they aren't
allowed to take or even destroy the missiles because they have not
been given the authority from thei
on.The Democratic primary pits U.S. Rep. Edward Markey, who has
staked out more liberal positions, against fellow Rep. Stephen Lynch, a
former ironworker who has tried to appeal to the party's working- and
middle-class base.Lynch, 58, has had to defend his decision to vote against
President Obama's 2010 health care law, while Markey, who won his first
elected office while in law school, has fended off efforts to portray
him as a Washington insider.Markey, 66, is the better-funded of the two
Democratic candidates, having raised $4.8 million through the end of the
last reporting period, compared with $1.5 million for Lynch.Markey has also
benefited from outside spending. Of the more than $2.2 million spent by
outside groups, nearly 84 percent went to Markey, an Associated Press review
of Federal Election Commission reports found.In the town of Wayland in his
congressional district, voters trickled in to polling places.Holly Zaitchik,
a 66-year-old retired Boston University professor, said she voted for Markey
because he's "he's done a terrific job of being there when anything
important happens" in Washington.Zaitchik also thought the Marathon bombings
might discourage turnout among voters still coping with the aftermath."There
are a lot of people who are still down and not wanting
to participate in things," she said. "It's disheartening."The GOP primary
race is pitting three candidates: former U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts
