Jesse Hamilton is an American lawyer and politician from the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City.

Hamilton was born and raised in the South Bronx. He later moved to Crown Heights, and served on the school board, as president of his block association and as president of the Rosa Parks Independent Democratic Organization. He also served as counsel for Eric Adams while Adams served in the New York State Senate.[1]

On September 9, 2014, Hamilton won the Democratic Party primary election to represent District 20 in the State Senate, which has been vacant since Adams resigned to be sworn in as Brooklyn's Borough President.[2] As there is no Republican Party opponent, Hamilton is unopposed in the November general election.[1]
