More than three weeks after he declared victory in the race for state attorney general, Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. Steve Cooley conceded defeat Wednesday as he trailed by more than 50,000 votes in one of the closest statewide races in California history.
The decision means that San Francisco Dist. Atty. Kamala Harris will assume the post of California's top law enforcement official, giving Democrats a clean sweep of the statewide offices.
On a side note: Ms. Harris is the first African-American/South Asian woman to become Attorney General in California.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, folks! Light posting tomorrow but will not resume normal posting until Friday!
