Massachusetts's 10th congressional district covers the south-east part of the state, including parts of the South Shore and all of Cape Cod and The Islands. Democrat Bill Delahunt, who has represented the seat since 1997, announced in March 2010 that he did not plan to run for re-election. The Boston Globe, on April 30, 2010, reported that Democratic State Senator Robert O'Leary would announce his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for the seat on the day following.[10] Joseph P. Kennedy III was considered a likely Democratic contender, but he chose not to run.[11] It was reported in the Boston Globe, that District Attorney of Norfolk County William R. Keating also sought the Democratic nomination for the seat.[12]

Republican Joe Malone, who ran against Ted Kennedy in 1988 and served as state treasurer from 1991 to 1999, unsuccessfully ran for the seat.[13][14] Republican State Representative Jeff Perry also ran.[15] Despite a movement to draft him into running, Republican State Senator Bob Hedlund decided not to enter this race.[16][17] Ray Kasperowicz of Cohasset had also filed to run as a Republican, but also lost in the primary.[18]

Malone received a donation from US-Cuba Democracy PAC.[19] Perry received donations from the Sandwich and Nantucket Republican Town Committees, the Cape Cod Republican Club, as well as other PACs such as the Committee to Elect Greer Swiston and the Cummings Committee.[19]
