PHILADELPHIA — A former assistant prosecutor on Tuesday won a five-way Democratic primary for district attorney, making him the heavy favorite to win in November and become the first black district attorney in the city’s history. The victory for Seth Williams comes four years after he lost in a challenge to his former boss, longtime DA Lynne Abraham.

Williams had more than 42,000 votes, or 42 percent, with about 90 percent of precincts reporting.
