By a re-apportionment in 1932, the state of New York received two more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, but instead of redistricting the congressional districts, the additional congressmen were elected at-large on the state ticket until the election of 1944.

The Socialist state convention met on July 3 at Utica, New York, and nominated Louis Waldman for the third time to run for governor; and Frank R. Crosswaith for lieutenant governor. [4] Crosswaith however declined, instead running for Congress in Harlem, and Charles W. Noonan was substituted on the ticket. [5]

Vichert, of Rochester, a professor of practical theology at Colgate Divinity School, for governor; H. Westlake Coons for lieutenant governor; Ralph H.

Trubee Davison for lieutenant governor; Mayor of Rochester, New York Charles S. Owen for comptroller; Moses G. Hubbard, of Utica, for attorney general; George Z. Medalie for the U.S. Senate; and the incumbent [8] Chief Judge Cuthbert W. Pound to succeed himself. [9]
The Democratic state convention met on October 4 at Albany, New York, and nominated Lieutenant Governor Herbert H. Lehman for governor to succeed Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt who had been nominated for U.S. President; M. William Bray for lieutenant governor; and re-nominated the other incumbent state officers, among them the Republican Chief Judge Cuthbert W. Pound. [10]
The whole Democratic ticket was elected in another landslide.
The incumbents Tremaine, Bennett, Pound and Wagner were re-elected. The incumbent Governor Roosevelt was elected President of the United States, defeating incumbent President Herbert Hoover.
