NJ LEGISLATIVE REDISTRICTING OVERVIEW
On April 3, 2011, the New Jersey Legislative District Map based on the 2010 Census was adopted. The newly drawn districts reflect
changing demographics within the State providing the basis for legislative representation over the next ten years. Population
migrations and ethnic diversity influenced many of the decisions, revealing the rich tapestry of the State. On the subsequent pages
is a detailed overview of the changes in each district including municipal changes, current representatives and differences resulting
from the redistricting. Below are a few highlights from the redistricting process:
Major Changes
Some of the major district changes include the 30th LD now
encompassing sections of Monmouth County’s shore
municipalities. The 12th LD stretches from Raritan Bay to Fort Dix.
New Jersey’s largest cities, Newark and Jersey City are no longer
divided between three LDs but consolidated within two LDs. While
many of the South Jersey districts reflect the growing population in
southern portions of the State.
LD 28
Newark
Competitive Districts
The redistricting also created some additional
competitive districts within the State. The two
eliciting the most interest from both parties are
the 11th LD located mainly in Monmouth County
and the 38th in Bergen County.
LD 29
Incumbents with New Constituencies
As a result of the new map a number of incumbents are facing
radically altered districts with many new constituents. Those
Legislators include Senator Bateman (R) in the 16th LD, Senator
Doherty (R) in the 23rd LD and Senator Codey (D) in the 27th LD.
Retirements
A numbers of Legislators, after many years of service
to the State, chose this time to retire from public
service. Announced retirements include: Senator
Ciesla (R) in the 16th LD, Senator Girgenti (D) in the
35th LD, Assemblyman Conners (D) in the 7th LD and
Assemblwoman Quigley in the 32nd LD.
LD 33
Jersey City
Movers
Some municipalities have shifted from one legislative district to
another taking with them incumbent Legislators. Several of these
members are moving in order to continue to represent their core
constituencies Those Legislators include Assemblyman Gusciora,
Assemblywoman Coyle and Assemblyman Caputo.
