"Bragg's focus is local, despite being known for his case against Trump and rising criticism of his policies during a spike in crime."
"Bragg emphasizes public safety as his main goal, noting NYC's decrease in homicides and shootings while addressing critics of his approach to crime."
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is facing a single challenger, Patrick Timmons, in the 2025 primary. Unlike his previous election with multiple competitors, this time the race is simplified. Bragg's high-profile position is largely due to his prosecution of Donald Trump, though he emphasizes a commitment to local public safety amid rising crime concerns. He has reported a decline in violent crime during his term, while Timmons offers a contrasting viewpoint on crime policies. The primary will not utilize ranked-choice voting, limiting voters to one selection.
