Bragg to Win Manhattan D.A. Primary After Opponent Concedes (1)

Alvin Bragg, a Harlem native and former federal prosecutor, is set to win the Democratic primary for Manhattan District Attorney after his final opponent, Tali Farhadian Weinstein, conceded the race on Friday.

Bragg, 47, would be the first Black district attorney for Manhattan.
