| | Democrats give Patrick resounding endorsement - The Boston Globe |
 | | In the lieutenant governor's race, Timothy Murray, the Worcester mayor, won the convention's endorsement, while Andrea Silbert, a former nonprofit leader from the Cape, and Deborah Goldberg, a former Brookline selectwoman, also won spots on the ballot. |
 | | The only suspense of the day was whether Gabrieli, the party's lieutenant governor candidate in 2002 and a wealthy venture capitalist, would clear the 15 percent mark necessary to advance to the primary. |
 | | Reilly, who early on decided to limit his convention effort to win a place on the primary ballot and not an endorsement, relied heavily on the party's veteran urban politicians, who represent more blue-collar constituencies. |
