Bronx Voters to Choose New Civil Court Judge in June 24 Primary
Bronx residents will head to the polls on June 24, 2025, to vote in a pivotal Democratic primary race that will determine who fills a countywide Civil Court judge seat.
The position, which carries a 10-year term, is vital to the borough’s judicial system, handling housing disputes, small claims, and other civil legal matters which might bring Bronxites in front of the court.
Vying for the seat are Shekera Anessa Algarin and George Santana, both Democrats with decades of legal experience and community advocacy.
Algarin, an attorney with nearly 25 years of experience, has centered her campaign on a track record of public service and a commitment to equity within the justice system. Her campaign is emphasizing her support for equal access to legal representation on her website, something the state has advanced with legislation guaranteeing tenants facing eviction the right to council.
