"We are proud to endorse for the Civil Court in Kings County these four exemplary, qualified judicial candidates, some of whom we got to hear from on their experience and leadership at our judicial forum,"
"As Brooklyn Democratic leaders, our mission is to ensure that the judicial selection process is transparent and inclusive of the public's input and interests while ensuring the bench reflects the community it serves,"
"proud to support this diverse slate that embodies integrity, justice, independence, fairness, and a life-long commitment to serving Brooklyn's communities."
On Feb. 9 the Brooklyn Democratic Party Executive Committee endorsed Celeste Felix, Linda Lo Cascio, Danielle Noel and Christine Ortiz for four open Civil Court-Kings County judge seats in the June 23 primary. Ad Hoc Judicial Committee co-chairs Michael Boomer and Jacqui Painter emphasized keeping judicial selection transparent, inclusive of public input, and reflective of the community. Chair Assemblywoman Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn described the slate as diverse and embodying integrity, justice, independence, fairness and a life-long commitment to serving Brooklyn's communities. She thanked candidates who participated in a virtual forum attended by about 20 Brooklyn Democratic clubs. The party noted that Celeste Felix is a principal law clerk at the New York Supreme Court in Kings County and a small-claims arbitrator in night court, and the Judicial Committee will continue the selection process for NYS Supreme Court — Kings County with future forums ahead of the Judicial Convention.
