The Democratic State Committee met on September 23 at the Hoffman House in New York City. Edward Murphy, Jr. was Chairman. The incumbent judge Robert Earl was re-nominated unanimously.[2]
The Socialist Labor state convention met on September 25 at Clarendon House in New York City. Francis Gerau was nominated for the Court of Appeals.[3]
