Chamber Passed·6/4/26

Requires certain elections take place in even-numbered years for certain municipal and judicial officials except in the city of New York.

This bill amends the New York State Constitution to require certain elections to take place in even-numbered years for municipal and judicial officials, except in the city of New York. Specifically, it mandates that elections for judges of the supreme court, county court, surrogate's court, and family court outside New York City, as well as city officers and county officers in cities and counties wholly within New York City, occur in even-numbered years. The bill also specifies that terms for these officials will expire at the end of even-numbered years.
