New Jersey's 27th legislative district
[7][8] For the 2024-2025 session, the 27th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by John F. McKeon (D, West Orange) and in the General Assembly by Rosy Bagolie (D, Livingston) and Alixon Collazos-Gill (D, Montclair).In the original creation of the 40-district legislative map in 1973, the 27th district consisted of the northern Essex County municipalities of Nutley, Bloomfield, Glen Ridge, Montclair, Cedar Grove, Verona, Caldwell, and Essex Fells.[13] Changes to the district made as part of the New Jersey Legislative reapportionment in 2011 removed the district's share of Newark while adding Millburn in Essex County, and the Republican-leaning Morris County municipalities of Chatham Township, East Hanover, Florham Park, Hanover Township, Harding Township and Madison.Assemblyman John McKeon was selected to replace Codey on the November ballot while Livingston councilwoman Rosy Bagolie replaced McKeon as a Democratic nominee for Assembly.Original primary winner Alixon Collazos-Gill planned to drop out as well in August with her husband, Essex County Commissioner Brendan Gill, expected to replace her, but she reversed her decision later that month.
