Here are the Republicans running for Attorney General in Pennsylvania.
Dave Sunday
York County District Attorney Dave Sunday became the first Republican to formally enter the race in July. Sunday has worked as a prosecutor in York County since 2009 and became District Attorney in 2018.
Sunday was previously appointed by the Department of Justice as special assistant United States attorney for the Middle District of Pennsylvania to prosecute gang, gun and drug cases in federal court. In that role, he was involved with the arrest and prosecution of more than 100 people associated with the Latin Kings gang in York County.
Sunday enlisted in the Navy and attended Penn State University and Widener Law School.
Craig Williams
Republican Pennsylvania State Representative Craig Williams (Delaware/Chester) announced in November that he is running for Attorney General.
A United States Marine Corps veteran, Williams flew 56 combat missions during the Gulf War and was “personally decorated 11 times, including twice for acts of Valor in combat.” He served as a Chief Prosecutor for the largest base in the Marine Corps and served as legal counsel for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
In December 2022, Williams was named as one of three impeachment managers in the case against Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner after the State House impeached the Democratic prosecutor over policies some lawmakers say have led to a rise in crime.
Williams received a Bachelor of Arts in Public Policy from Duke University, a Juris Doctor with high honors from the University of Florida College of Law, and a Master of Laws with high honors in Jurisprudence (Virtue Ethics and Criminal Law) from the Columbia University School of Law.
The five Democrats running for Attorney General debated on March 12 on topics including crime, guns, technology, and abortion.
Election Day is April 23.
