## Background

[edit]

On September 22, 1945, Chief Judge Irving Lehman died. On September 28, Judge John T. Loughran was appointed Chief Judge to fill the vacancy temporarily, and George Z. Medalie was appointed temporarily to the seat vacated by Loughran. On March 5, 1946, Medalie died too, and Stanley H. Fuld was appointed on April 25 to fill the vacancy temporarily.

## Nominations

[edit]

The Socialist Labor state convention met on April 7, and nominated Aaron M. Orange for Governor. They also nominated Nathan Karp for Lieutenant Governor; Bronko Papadopolos, of Buffalo, for Comptroller; Walter Steinhilber, of Queens, for Attorney General; and Eric Hass for the U.S. Senate.[1] The party filed a petition to nominate candidates under the name "Industrial Government Party."

The Socialist state convention met on April 14, and nominated Prof. Coleman B. Cheney for Governor; and Walter O'Hagan for Lieutenant Governor.[2]

The Liberal Party gathered 51,015 signatures and filed a petition to nominate candidates with the Secretary of State on September 2.[3]

The Republican state convention met on September 4 at Saratoga Springs, New York. They re-nominated the five Republican incumbents Dewey, Hanley, Moore, Goldstein and Fuld; endorsed the Democratic Chief Judge Loughran to succeed himself; and completed the ticket with Assembly Majority Leader Irving M. Ives for the U.S. Senate.[4]

The Democratic state convention met on September 4 at Albany, New York, and nominated U.S. Senator James M. Mead for Governor; Mayor of Albany Erastus Corning 2nd for Lieutenant Governor; New York City Treasurer Spencer C. Young for Comptroller; City Councilman Anthony J. DiGiovanna for Attorney General; Ex-Governor Herbert H. Lehman (in office 1933-1942) for the U.S. Senate; Ex-State Solicitor General Henry Epstein for the Court of Appeals; and the incumbent Chief Judge John T. Loughran to succeed himself.[5]

The American Labor state convention met on September 3 and endorsed the Democratic nominee James M. Mead for Governor; and also endorsed the Democrats Lehman and Loughran. They completed the ticket with Benjamin F. Fielding, of New York City, for Lieutenant Governor; Harry J. Chapman, of Brooklyn, for Comptroller; Joseph Lucchi, of Queens, for Attorney General; and John Abt for the Court of Appeals.[6] Fielding, Chapman and Abt were withdrawn from the ticket on September 5, and Democrats Corning, Young and Epstein substituted on the ticket.[7] Lucchi declined to run on September 7, and Democrat DiGiovanna was substituted on the ticket.[8]

The Communist Party filed a petition to nominate candidates on September 2. They nominated Party State Chairman Robert Thompson for Governor; Israel Amter for Lieutenant Governor; Benjamin J. Davis, Jr., of New York City, for the U.S. Senate; Dr. Bella V. Dodd for Attorney General; and Marie Guidoni for Comptroller.[9] On September 9, Thompson announced that all candidates except himself for Comptroller would be withdrawn in an effort to strengthen the Democratic candidates in their quest to oust Governor Dewey,[10] but Davis also remained on the ticket, running for Attorney General. On October 19, Supreme Court Justice William H. Murray denied an application by Spencer C. Young, the Democratic nominee for Comptroller, to bar the Communist ticket from the ballot.[11]

The Socialist Workers Party filed a petition to nominate candidates headed by Farrell Dobbs for Governor.

The Industrial Government, Socialist and Socialist Workers tickets were not allowed on the ballot because of "defective nominating petitions." The Court of Appeals upheld the decisions of the lower courts.[12]

## Result

[edit]

The whole Republican ticket was elected in a landslide.

The incumbents Dewey, Hanley, Moore, Goldstein, Loughran and Fuld were re-elected.

The Liberal Party attained automatic ballot access (necessary 50,000 votes for governor).
