The awful politics of Nassau (and Suffolk) really make me angry. There are 4 positions open for Supreme Court. There are 4 candidates, and 2 are supported by the Dems, Reps and Cons. The other 2 by Reps and Cons.

County Court, 2 positions, 2 candidates, all supported by all 3 parties. Same for Family Court and District Court.

How is that a choice?

I don't disagree but it is particularly difficult to vote for judges. How do you campaign as a judge when ethically, you can't take positions.

1) That doesn't work for first-time candidates who were not judges.

2) Sometimes rulings are legally correct but not popular. I don't know that the general public is qualified to determine the quality of a judge based upon their rulings.

So no public defenders then because they don't get a say in what cases they take. Hell, no associates, since partners make client decisions. You've probably eliminated any attorney who has defended a client with a rape, child SA, or murder charge.
