New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) announced Thursday that she is dropping her brief campaign for governor to focus on “finish[ing] the job” in her current position.

James said in a statement:

I have come to the conclusion that I must continue my work as attorney general. There are a number of important investigations and cases that are underway, and I intend to finish the job. I am running for re-election to complete the work New Yorkers elected me to do.
