Public safety is an issue that has dominated the race.
Endorsed by the Fraternal Order of Police, Vallas says more beat cops and detectives is the answer. Johnson says crime can only be solved with a more holistic approach.From his very first TV ad, Vallas has framed himself as a throwback law and order candidate.
Johnson, on the other hand, believes crime can be solved with more investments in mental health, housing, education and social services. If he is elected, Johnson said his first order of business will be coming up with a comprehensive public safety plan. "I'm absolutely convinced there are hundreds of officers who are poised to return from retirement, who will in fact return in almost 30 days," Vallas said.
"There are multiple steps that go into hiring a police officer, from physical exams to background checks to psychology examination," Katz said.
