General Election
Two former prosecutors seek a newly created Staten Island Civil Court seat
The seat is one of 10 Civil Court judgeships added in 2026, with nominees chosen by the parties and no primary. People who filed objections to Vitucci's nomination, joined in court by Low, challenged it, and the Board of Elections removed him from the ballot on Aug. 4, 2026; he went to court the same day to be placed back on it. On Aug. 13, 2026, state Supreme Court Justice Peter P. Sweeney dismissed the petition challenging his nomination, and the Board's Sept. 11, 2026 contest list includes him.
