Judgeship Endorsement Moves Highlight June Primary Fallout
Party committees meet after the June 28 primary to decide judgeship endorsements. The plan could aid New York regulars and local Republican Abraham S. Isseks, the endorsed candidate, if the judgeship is created. Isseks faced Assemblyman Daniel Becker in a potential primary, but the Legislature’s delay eliminates that race. If Davidson errs and the judgeship is created, Isseks would likely be endorsed again, Becker would be out. A late petition filing bill for June 26 remains, but candidates have little time to collect signatures and lose campaign days. Neither Becker nor Isseks seeks re election to his current post.
