Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who gained notoriety in prosecuting President Donald Trump during his hush money case, won his Democratic primary against former Bronx prosecutor Patrick Timmins with over 70% of the votes received and counted as of 10 p.m. Thursday.

Bragg was expected to win the primary and will likely win reelection in November in a heavily blue New York County. Unlike other races, the primary did not feature ranked choice voting.
