...For the second time in four years, Lewis is challenging McGraw, who held the office in 2004 by 5,946
votes.
Lewis said the incumbent hasn’t maintained the office with the proper level of integrity and that he
would help law enforcement agencies deal with sex offenders and drug traffickers.
A large focus would be put on helping, rather than hindering, businesses in the state, he said.
“We need someone to replace Darrell McGraw so we can turn this state around economically, someone
who understands businesses a little better, someone who helps pursue a better legal climate and not
just file lawsuits and put businesses out of work,” Lewis said.
Lewis says the attorney general’s contest “should be the pivotal race of the season.”
