The 2022 New York Attorney General election was held on November 8, 2022. Incumbent Democratic Attorney General Letitia James was eligible for re-election, but originally decided to run for Governor of New York in 2022. On December 9, 2021, however, she suspended her gubernatorial campaign and announced that she would seek re-election as attorney general. Republicans nominated Michael Henry, an attorney from Queens. James defeated Henry by a margin of 9.2%, a massive underperformance from her 27.2% victory in 2018.
Of all the statewide races in New York in 2022, this is the only one where the incumbent (Letitia James) refused to debate their opponent.[1]
