Boston Mayor Michelle Wu Josh Kraft.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has advanced in Tuesday’s preliminary election and will face the son of the Patriots owner in November. Wu is the city’s first Asian and female leader and a frequent target of the Trump administration. She will face Josh Kraft, a nonprofit leader and son of Patriots owner Robert Kraft. Wu has been bolstered by her strong defense of the city amid attacks from the Trump administration over Boston’s immigration policy. Kraft spent heavily on advertising all summer. He hammered Wu on everything from the city’s high cost of living to her handling of an area known for drug problems.
