Matt Platkin is the New Jersey Attorney General - for the entire state on behalf of the state. A state district attorney acts within the state on behalf on the local county or district (sometimes called a county attorney or prosecutor). The NJ U.S. Attorneys office is part of the federal system.
For what purpose?
Not sure which one you’re asking about, but in general our legal system strives to ensure that citizens (as a whole) are represented in every level of government - from county/ district to state to federal.
NJ US Attorney's office. Seems like a duplicate position to me.
Oh, that’s where the federal govt enters the picture, and the executive gets to decide who to appoint as the U.S. attorney in each *federal district* of each state (93 total). These are different from the state districts.

That isnt a question of your detailing of this, its a question of how this system works…and the fact that 45 shoved Habba into that position is…distressing…smh
