On August 6, 2026, the Brooklyn Democratic Party Executive Committee convened in Marine Park, Brooklyn, to nominate a slate of four candidates for the New York State Supreme Court. The decision was made by a body of 170 judicial delegates who attended the convention.
The four nominees will appear on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot, where voters across the state will choose among candidates for the state's highest trial court. The Brooklyn Democratic Party’s selection process follows the party’s internal rules, allowing delegates to vote on the slate that will represent the party in the upcoming election.
The convention, held at a local venue in Marine Park, brought together party officials, local activists, and the 170 delegates authorized to cast votes on behalf of Brooklyn’s Democratic electorate. The delegates reviewed the qualifications of each candidate before casting their ballots, resulting in a unanimous or majority selection of the four individuals who will carry the party’s endorsement.
The nomination marks the final step for the Brooklyn Democratic Party in preparing its Supreme Court lineup for the November election. Once on the ballot, the nominees will compete against candidates from other parties and any independents who have qualified for the race. The outcome will influence the composition of the state’s trial courts for the next term.
Election officials have confirmed that the names of the four Brooklyn Democratic nominees will be listed on the official ballot for the November 3, 2026 general election. Voters in Brooklyn and throughout New York will have the opportunity to vote for these candidates when they cast their ballots later this year.
