Justine Benin made her debut in politics at the municipal elections of 2008 by being elected to the Le Moule council on the list of Gabrielle Louis-Carabin, then a member of UMP.[2] At the 2010 regional elections, she was elected on the list of the socialist winner Victorin Lurel.[2]

The following year, during the cantonal elections she was elected general councillor in the canton of Moule-2, eliminating from the first round the outgoing socialist Christian Couchy.[2] She was re-elected at the 2015 departmental election, after the merger of the townships of the municipality in the new canton of Moule.[2]

On 17 June 2017, she was elected as a left-wing deputy for Guadeloupe's 2nd constituency, receiving 64.26% of the votes cast in the 2nd round against the LREM candidate Diana Peran.[3][1]
