Washington, DC — The Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) congratulates Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford on advancing to the general election this November. AG Ford is set to take on the Republican nominee and far-right extremist Sigal Chattah following her win in the Nevada GOP primary.

Statement from Michelle Ortiz, Executive Director, Democratic Attorneys General Association:

“The stage is set this November in the race for Attorney General in Nevada, and the stark difference between the two candidates could not be more pronounced. AG Aaron Ford has spent the last three and a half years delivering wins for the people of Nevada. From standing up to powerful corporations and protecting health care, to defending voting rights and pursuing anti-trafficking efforts to hold perpetrators accountable, AG Ford has always put Nevada families first.”

“AG Ford will face Sigal Chattah in the general election, an extremist candidate not ready to be Nevada’s AG who continues to throw out unhinged attacks against her opponents. Chattah has spent her campaign diverting from the issues that matter to Nevadans because she is not ready for the job. She’s never prosecuted a case and has a record of being soft on crime. We are proud to support Attorney General Aaron Ford in his work to protect Nevadans.”
