(NYT) — The second day of the Democratic state convention drew to a close here on Wednesday with a wide-open primary for attorney general after party leaders maneuvered to ensure that all five declared candidates made it onto the Democratic ballot.
After hours of horse-trading and discussions among top party officials, the first round of voting by party delegates put Kathleen M. Rice, the Nassau County district attorney; State Senator Eric T. Schneiderman; and Assemblyman Richard L. Brodsky on the primary ballot.
