A Petition Circulates in Brooklyn
Here's one of the petitions currently circulating throughout Brooklyn, where, as you can tell, a number of judicial races are taking place. A reader who passed it along said the candidate at the bottom of the petition, Diana Johnson, who is running for the Surrogate's Court, is now joined by another "insurgent" against the county-backed candidate in that race.
More analysis of that race once I actually get in touch with this reader who, for the moment, isn't answering their cell phone. (Must be on vacation.)

The petition published has the County organization endorsed candidates for Civil Court plus Diana Johnson who is running for Surrogate. My understanding that there is no County endorsed candidate for Surrogate and organization affiliated clubs are free to support any of the candidates.
