    Examining Turnover in the New York State Legislature: Ethical Misconduct Increasingly the Cause for Legislators Leaving Framework for Reform to Address Misconduct, Special Elections, and Redistricting NOVEMBER 2009 Research and Policy Analysis by Citizens Union Foundation Prepared and Published by Citizens Union Written by: Dick Dadey Executive Director Rachael Fauss Policy and Research Associate DeNora Getachew Director of Public Policy & Legislative Counsel Andrea Senteno Program Associate With assistance from: Christina Wong Endorsed by: Common Cause/NY League of Women Voters/N.Y.S. New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) Citizens Union of the City of New York 299 Broadway, Suite 700 New York, NY 10007-1976 phone 212-227-0342 • fax 212-227-0345 • [email protected] • www.citizensunion.org Peter J.W. Sherwin, Chair • Dick Dadey, Executive Director I. Executive Summary Over the past ten years, 139 elected state legislators have left office for any number of reasons ranging from ethical or criminal misconduct to dying in office. This report, researched by Citizens Union Foundation, finds that a state legislator in New York State is more likely to leave office because of ethical misconduct than either being redistricted out of one’s seat or even death. Over the past ten years, fourteen legislators left their office because of ethical misconduct, criminal charges, or similar issues. Only seven died while in office, and eight left due to redistricting. In fact, one of every fifteen seats in the legislature turned over in the past ten years because of ethical or criminal misconduct or related issues. This does not even count those who are still in office and under investigation or whose fates are currently being decided.
