Lottery today for ballot in special Senate race

The Secretary of State is holding a lottery today to decide how the candidates for the District 20 state Senate seat appear on the March 18 primary ballot.

The special election was scheduled to fill the seat of former Sen. Roger Badeau, D-Woonsocket, who died on Jan. 25.

Rep. Roger Picard will appear first on the ballot because he is the endorsed Democratic candidate.

The lottery will determine in what order the other hopefuls - Rosina L. Hunt and Thomas Scully – appear.

The special election is scheduled for Tuesday, April 22.
