Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg faces re-election challenge from Republican Maud Maron

Maud Maron, a former Legal Aid attorney, is vying for the Republican Party nomination to challenge the re-election of Democratic Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Maron, a 53-year-old mother of four public school children, previously ran for Congress as a Democrat but switched her party affiliation to independent and later to Republican in October 2023.

A member of District 2’s Community Education Council, Maron gained attention for calling for a public review of the Department of Education’s policy allowing transgender girls to compete in sports against biological females. She emphasizes that her campaign is centered on restoring justice and safety in the city for law-abiding citizens.

Maron plans to combat crime by prosecuting offenders regardless of their immigration status and repealing Bragg’s controversial “Day One memo,” which downgraded certain felonies to misdemeanors. She also intends to establish a specialized unit to address homeless issues and remove violent individuals with mental health issues from the streets.

Furthermore, Maron aims to utilize all available mental health resources to detain and provide services to mentally unstable individuals posing a threat. She plans to create a dedicated unit for the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) and increase the number of investigators and detectives.

In terms of legislative reforms, Maron advocates for the repeal or modification of New York’s cashless bail reform, the “raise the age” law, and stricter parole policies. She also opposes the closure of Rikers Island and the construction of community-based jails.

Maron brings extensive experience as a public defender in Manhattan and the Bronx for over two decades, as well as a background as a law professor at Cardozo Law School. She is an elected member and former president of Community Education Council District 2, advocating for high standards and merit-based policies.

A lifelong Democrat, Maron left the party due to concerns about censorship and “woke” policies that she believes are detrimental to children. Despite the challenge of running as a Republican in liberal Manhattan, Maron has garnered support from community leaders who appreciate her blend of compassion and tough-on-crime approach.

In contrast, Alvin Bragg, a former federal prosecutor, faces no Democratic primary challenger at this time. The upcoming election will undoubtedly be a competitive race between these two candidates with different visions for the future of Manhattan’s District Attorney’s office.
