🚨2018 ATTORNEYS GENERAL THREAD🚨

It’s hard to overstate how important a state’s Attorney General (AG) is. They are the chief law enforcement officer of their states and can set legal priorities.

So spread the word about the Democratic Attorney General nominees for 2018.

There are currently 27 Republican Attorneys General and 21 Democratic Attorneys General. We have the opportunity to flip *18* of those races electorally!

In most states, the AG is elected directly by voters. In others the AG is selected, either by the Gov., the State Leg., or the State Supreme Court.

In 2018, your vote for Gov in AK/WY/NH/HI will determine your AG! The same applies to your State Leg votes in ME! TN is a mix!
