State Senator John Rafferty unveiled another list of endorsements today.

Thirteen District Attorneys are backing Rafferty’s campaign.

“Those of us on the front lines protecting our communities in the streets and in the courtroom know how important it is have an attorney general with experience and integrity.

We’re proud to stand with John Rafferty for attorney general.”

“I’m honored to receive the endorsement of so many district attorneys,” Rafferty responded. “I will restore the relationships with the district attorneys that have deteriorated over the past four years. When I’m attorney general, the district attorneys will be my partners in protecting our citizens.”  

The full list of Rafferty’s new supporters is as follows: Bedford County District Attorney Bill Higgins; Blair County District Attorney Richard Consiglio, Bradford County District Attorney  Daniel Barrett; Chester County District Attorney Thomas Hogan; Columbia County District Attorney Thomas Leipold; Crawford County District Attorney Francis Schultz; Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico; Delaware County District Attorney Jack Whelan; Lancaster County District Attorney Craig Stedman; Lebanon County District Attorney David J.
