Burlington's Safety Battle | Burlington News

Published 1 month ago
Description

Burlington’s future hinges on one question: Who’s the right leader to keep Chittenden County safe? Incumbent Sarah George, seeking her third term, defends her record of criminal justice reform, restorative justice, and clearing court backlogs—arguing that tough-on-crime policies like cash bail only fuel cycles of incarceration and violence. Her challenger, Bram Kranichfeld, says Burlington was safer before George took office and vows to reinstate cash bail, crack down on drugs, and use every prosecutorial tool to hold people accountable. With no Republican opposition, voters in the August 11 primary will decide whether to continue George’s progressive path or embrace Kranichfeld’s tougher stance on crime and public safety.
