From turnto10.com:
State Rep. Peter Kilmartin won the Democratic primary for attorney general.
The 48-year-old Kilmartin, a Pawtucket native, defeated Smithfield Councilman Steve Archambault and former Providence city solicitor Joe Fernandez in Tuesday’s voting.
Kilmartin will face Republican Erik Wallin and Moderate Chris Little on Nov. 2.
Kilmartin served nearly 24 years as a Pawtucket police officer and has been in the General Assembly for 20 years. He earned his law degree from Roger Williams University.
He has said he wants to focus on preventing youth crime and fighting gang violence by doing more work in neighborhoods.
