Powers (November 10, 1910 – July 31, 1998) was an American politician who served as President of the Massachusetts Senate from 1959 to 1964. Powers, a former clam digger, messenger, and machine operator, served as a State Senator from Boston from 1940 to 1964 and Supreme Judicial Court of Suffolk County from 1964 to 1988.[1] He was twice a candidate for Mayor of Boston. He lost to incumbent John B. Hynes in the 1955 mayoral election.[2][3] Following Hynes' retirement, Powers became the front-runner for the mayorship, however he lost to Boston City Council member John F. Collins in the 1959 mayoral election,[4] despite having the most votes in the preliminary election amongst five candidates.[5] Powers is remembered on the Boston Irish Heritage Trail.[6] References1. ^http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=BG&p_theme=bg&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=0EADDD375C083886&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Powers, John E.}}{{Massachusetts-MASenate-stub}}2. ^http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=546205 3. ^http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=546206 4. ^http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=546208 5. ^http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=546207 6. ^{{cite web |website=Irish Heritage Trail |title=South Boston |url=http://www.irishheritagetrail.com/site_map/}} 7 : 1910 births|1998 deaths|Massachusetts state senators|Politicians from Boston|Presidents of the Massachusetts Senate|20th-century American politicians|American people of Irish descent |
