Tom Szczepaniak of Dalton will formally announce his candidacy for state representative for the 2nd Berkshire District on Wednesday, May 26, at 5:30PM at the American Legion Post 155, 258 North St. (Route 9) in Dalton.

A Democrat, he will face off in the Sept. 14 primary against Paul Mark of Hancock; the winner will meet the Republican primary winner in November.
The 2nd Berkshire District, consisting of 22 mostly rural towns in Berkshire, Franklin and Hampshire counties, has been represented by Denis E. Guyer of Dalton. Guyer, a Democrat, has declined to stand for re-election.

I can't believe this guy has the nerve to run, given his low IQ, criminal record, and lackluster career on the select board. He's clearly only in politics to snag contracts for his business.
I am really disappointed with IBerkshires.com, I have read several posts on ALL the candidates running & it is so obvious you allow angry, clueless people post what ever they feel. This is one place I will never visit again. I thought your blogs would be clean & fair, clearly you are far from that.
