Krasner wins Philadelphia DA primary [View all]
This was the most intriguing primary in the state to me. It pitted the incumbent Krasner, the most high profile "progressive DA" in the country, against Carlos Vega, a homicide prosecutor who was one of many Krasner fired when he took over in 2017. Vega also has the full support of the FOP along with its large expenditures on his behalf. Krasner won bt about 65-35.
Krasner will face Chuck Peruto who won the R primary.
