The Dem AG primary field was quite crowded. DePaquale won with a plurality mosty, imho, based on name recognition from his service as state Aud Gen. After he was term-limited out of that office, he ran unsuccefully against Perry in PA-10 and lost. He should have left his political career at that and not run for Atty Gen as there were better, more qualified Dem candidates. His campaign was the definition of sad sack.

Yass might have spent a lot of money promoting Dave Sunday, but even if he hadn't, Sunday would've won.
