The 1933 New York state election was held on November 7, 1933, to elect a judge of the New York Court of Appeals, as well as all members of the New York State Assembly. Besides the elections, four amendments to the State Constitution were proposed.
History
In 1933, there was only one state officer to be elected statewide: a judge of the Court of Appeals, to succeed Cuthbert W. Pound, who had been elected Chief Judge in 1932. Leonard C. Crouch had been appointed in March 1932 to the seat when Pound was appointed temporarily Chief Judge. Crouch was re-appointed in January 1933 after Pound's taking office for his elected term.
