Former Philadelphia prosecutor Dan McCaffery is dropping out of the race for Pennsylvania attorney general in what he described as an attempt to give the Democratic Party a chance to unify and dethrone the GOP from its decades-long stronghold as the state’s top prosecutor.

Patrick Murphy and former Lackawanna County prosecutor Kathleen Kane.
