Pa.’s richest person is pumping millions of dollars into the race for attorney general

HARRISBURG — Thanks in large part to Pennsylvania’s richest person, TV ad spending for the Republican candidate for state attorney general is flooding the race.

The wave of spending for Dave Sunday has sparked allegations from his Democratic opponent, Eugene DePasquale, that the Republican is trying to shield those dollars from public view to avoid association with the donor, billionaire Wall Street trader Jeff Yass.
