General election

Campaign

Donnelly has stated that Aloise lacks the necessary management experience for the job, even though 90 prosecutors have left during her administration. [3] Republicans in the county have sent out mailers likening Aloise to Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee in the 2025 New York City mayoral election, even though Aloise has denounced Mamdani. [4] Aloise has stated that she will be tough on crime, and has focused on Donnelly's leadership style. [5]

In August, Aloise had outraised Donnelly by over $80,000. Aloise had raised $254,000, while Donnelly raised just $165,000. [6]

In September, various police unions in the county either endorsed Aloise or declined to endorse. CSEA Local 830 endorsed Aloise, the first time the union has endorsed a candidate in over ten years. [7]
