Jamaica Plain and West Roxbury voters are picking a new city councilor to replace District 6 City Councilor John Tobin in a special election. Voters can pick between two established candidates who survived last month's primary, James W. Hennigan III and Matthew J. O’Malley. Hennigan's father, grandfather, and sister have represented part or all of District 6. O’Malley ran for City Council twice already. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Boston can help you find where to vote. [Globe]

Despite being the subject of a high-profile corruption probe, City Councilor Chuck Turner easily won Tuesday's preliminary election with 52% in a four-candidate race. Turner reportedly told the Herald "This is a mandate for me to fight back. They’re saying, ‘Keep on fighting.’" Turner was at federal court before Judge Timothy Hillman for a hearing regarding his access to the government documents the indictment is based on. Turner can gain access to the documents if he agrees not to leak them. Turner won't agree to the gag order, saying “They would have to put me in jail." Last week, Turner criticized the FBI for their handling, or not handling, the ongoing City Hall “e-mail-gate” scandal.
