Albany, NY (AP)--Two big city prosecutors, two prolific state
lawmakers, a Naval aviator turned trial lawyer and a former Wall
Street watchdog are vying to become New York's next attorney
general.
The job has reshaped corporate America and propelled the last
two attorneys general into front-runners for governor.
All six candidates say they will push reform and delve into
government corruption.
Five Democrats in a Sept. 14 primary are state Sen. Eric
Schneiderman of Manhattan, Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen
Rice, former state Insurance Superintendent Eric Dinallo of
Manhattan, attorney Sean Coffey of Westchester County, and
Assemblyman Richard Brodsky of Westchester County.
The winner faces Republican Staten Island District Attorney
Daniel Donovan.
