Timmins campaigned against Bragg's handling of crime in the county. Bragg's campaign rejected the idea that crime has risen, as crime rates among the seven felonies that the New York City Police Department uses to measure crime rate [a] are 13% lower in 2025 than the rates across a similar time period in 2022 were.
