David Sunday wins Republican primary for Pennsylvania Attorney General

Sunday defeated Craig Williams in Tuesday's GOP primary for the right to run for statewide office in November.

PENNSYLVANIA, USA — York County District Attorney David Sunday will run for Pennsylvania Attorney General in November after winning Tuesday's Republican primary.

Sunday defeated State Rep. Craig Williams for the right to run on the Republican ticket. He will run against <insert Democrat here>, who emerged from a crowded field to win the Democratic primary.

Current Attorney General Michelle Henry decided to step down at the end of her term and is not seeking re-election.

A member of the York County District Attorney's Office since 2009, Sunday has served as York County's top prosecutor since his election in 2017. He touts a collaborative approach to public safety that resulted in a 30% decrease in crime during his first term and the "lowest recidivism rate over a five-year period as compared to seven other counties."

Sunday has tried approximately 50 felony jury trials to verdict, including the successful prosecutions of more than 10 of the most high-profile murders in York County in recent memory. 

A graduate of Penn State University and the Widener School of Law, Sunday is a U.S. Navy veteran. He put himself through law school while working for UPS, according to his website.

Sunday lives in Spring Garden Township with his wife and son.
