Pam Bondi's brother crushed in DC Bar Association election [View all]

Brad Bondi, the brother of Attorney General Pam Bondi, overwhelmingly lost his bid to lead the D.C. Bar Association in a race with record turnout, the organization announced Monday.

Bondi, who is global co-chair of the law firm Paul Hastings’s investigations and white-collar defense practice, earned just 3,490 votes, or 9.1 percent, in the D.C. Bar’s presidential election. His opponent, employment lawyer Diane Seltzer, won 34,982 votes, or 90.9 percent.

The association does not decide attorney discipline matters, but critics of President Trump raised alarm that an attempted takeover by his allies was underway, as tensions between the White House and the legal profession reach stratospheric heights.

Seltzer, who runs an eponymous employment law firm and was endorsed by nearly two dozen former D.C. Bar Association presidents, begins her term as president-elect next month, on July 1, and her term as president begins on July 1, 2026.
