New Jersey's 20th legislative district
[7][8] For the 2024-2025 session, the 20th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by Joseph Cryan (D, Union Township) and in the General Assembly by Reginald Atkins (D, Roselle) and Annette Quijano (D, Elizabeth).[17] With both seats open, Democrats Thomas J. Deverin and Raymond Lesniak, who had both previously served as representatives of the 21st district, won in the Assembly.[18] Gregorio was forced to resign in 1983 after being convicted of conspiracy for concealing his ownership of two go-go bars that were operated by his son.In turn, another special election was held in August 1983 to fill Lesniak's vacancy, a race that was won by Thomas W.[22] In the 1991 Republican landslide, the 20th bucked the trend, with incumbent George Hudak and Elizabeth Mayor Thomas G. Dunn narrowly holding on to the seats for the Democrats.[24] Democratic committee members from the district selected Annette Quijano to fill Cohen's vacancy.
