Read the guideA county-based district name is not a countywide seat
Massachusetts has 40 Senate seats and 160 House seats. District names can refer to counties without encompassing every voter in those counties. Campaign intake therefore needs the official named district rather than a broad county filter. Chapter 55 and OCPF guidance supply separate context for campaign advertising and payer review.
The elected offices in this guide
Massachusetts names districts with county-based names, but those names do not mean an entire county votes in each district.
