Charles P. Sullivan (February 3, 1886 – July 18, 1956) was an American lawyer and politician from New York.
[1] Sullivan graduated from the Potsdam Normal School, after which he worked as a teacher for three years.
[1] In 1922, Sullivan was elected to the New York State Assembly as a Democrat, representing the Queens County 4th District.
In 1936, a newspaper accused him of laxity in prosecuting a homicidal case, although Governor Lehman refused to supersede Sullivan as the paper demanded and he was re-elected to office in 1938.
In 1951, he fell out of favor with James A. Roe, the leader of the Queens Democratic Party, and after failing to get the Democratic nomination for County Judge he formed an alliance with Rudolph Halley and unsuccessfully ran for re-election on the Liberal and independent ticket.
