Four years later, having made peace with the state Democratic Party, MDC, the state police and public employee unions, Dukakis defeated King in a re-match in the 1982 Democratic primary. He went on to defeat his Republican opponent, [[John Winthrop Sears]], in the November election. Future United States senator, [[2004 United States presidential election|2004]] Democratic presidential nominee, and US Secretary of State [[John Kerry]] was elected [[Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts|lieutenant governor]] on the same ballot with Dukakis, and served in the Dukakis administration from 1983 to 1985.

Dukakis served as governor during which time he presided over a high-tech boom and a period of prosperity in Massachusetts while simultaneously earning a reputation as a 'technocrat'.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/08/magazine/dukakis.html|title=Dukakis|last=Butterfield|first=Fox|date=May 8, 1988|work=The New York Times|access-date=January 22, 2019|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331|archive-date=January 23, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190123010150/https://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/08/magazine/dukakis.html|url-status=live}}</ref> The National Governors Association voted Dukakis the most effective governor in 1986.
