Does your state not elect your Attorney General?

I just noticed that Peter Harvey does not have a D or a R next to his name on the National Association of Attorney Generala Website (www.naag.org).

1. AG is appointed by the Gov with advice & consent of the Senate

but you can bet your boots he is a Democrat.

4. In Maine, they are elected by the State Legislature

with a simple majority vote. I had the honor as a State Rep during my first term to vote for my uncle in 1998. He served 3 terms as Maine's AG and became President of the National AG's Association that year. I served 3 terms in the House.

BTW- My uncle and I are both originally from Ewing Township (just outside of Trenton) I have fond memories of T-Town, but we're "Mainiacs" now having lived here for over 25 years.
