Two Democrats are hoping to succeed retiring attorney general Brian E. Frosh.
Looking directly at the camera in a 30-second television spot released Friday, Curran O’Malley listed her accomplishments — nearly three decades as prosecutor and judge —“My opponent, Anthony G. Brown, is a fine congressman, but he’s never tried a criminal case in Maryland and he doesn’t have the right experience for this job,” Curran O’Malley said. “I’ll be ready to fight for you on day one.”
While Curran O’Malley’s campaign said the ad draws a clear contrast between her Maryland-centric experience and Brown’s political career, the Brown campaign saw it as an attack. In her ad, filmed in a courtroom setting, she notes she’s been working on criminal justice issues for 30 years. The Democratic primary has determined the state’s attorney general in every election since 1952. Republicans Jim Shalleck, the former elections chief in Montgomery County, and Michael Peroutka, a former member of the Anne Arundel County Council, are on their party’s primary ballot. Together, they’ve raised a fraction of what the Democrats have hauled in.The attorney general’s office is the lawyer for the state government and the enforcer of consumer protection laws.
