NEW YORK(TIP):  New York City Public Advocate Letitia James has won a four-way Democratic primary for attorney general in New York. The race was a competition over who could best use the office to antagonize President Donald Trump.

James would become the first black woman to hold statewide elected office in New York if she wins in the general election.

In her victory speech Thursday, September 13 night, James took aim at Trump, saying he “can’t go a day without dividing us” and telling her supporters they’re “in the middle of a fight to save our democracy.”

She said Trump “can’t go a day without threatening our fundamental rights,” or the rights of immigrants.

The 59-year-old was an early favorite in the race after getting endorsements from Gov. Andrew Cuomo and other top Democrats.

James is a favorite to win, as she faces a little-known New York City attorney, Republican Keith Wofford, in November. Even otherwise, New York is considered a preserve of Democrats.
