Retired state Supreme Court Judge George Grasso was in Flushing on June 15 where he received endorsements in his campaign for Queens district attorney from two Asian-American political advocacy organizations just two days before the start of early voting for the June 27 Democratic primary election.

Grasso retired last August with two years remaining in his term to challenge Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz in her re-election bid.

“Our endorsements come after reviewing completed candidate questionnaires, publicly available news and records, participation in our candidates’ forums and member deliberation,” Asian Wave Alliance President Yiatin Chu said. “Judge George Grasso has a solid track record of fighting crime and we are confident that he will protect the Asian communities in Queens. We support candidates who are committed to making our communities safer, cleaner and more prosperous for us and our children.”
