Right to Life Party Election Results

The Right to Life Party of New York state ceased to be a qualified party in November 2002. However, since then, it has placed a few candidates on the November ballot, in State Supreme Court races, which are partisan elections in New York. These candidates have only appeared on the ballot in Westchester County and its smaller neighboring counties in the Hudson River Valley.

In November 2010, the party ran two candidates, James Alexander Burke, who was not the nominee of any other party; and Matthew J. Byrne, who was also a Republican nominee. Burke received 9,409 votes, or 1.88%. Byrne received 5,572 votes on the Right to Life line, or 1.11%.

These results are low, relative to what that party received in judicial and other partisan races in the past. The party first ran judicial candidates in 1979, and averaged 6.09% of the vote across the state. The only year in which the party polled a lower percentage than in 2010 was 2004, when its sole judicial candidate received 1.39%.
