New Jersey's 3rd legislative district
[5] For the 2024-2025 session, the 3rd legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by John Burzichelli (D, Paulsboro) and in the General Assembly by David Bailey (D, Woodstown) and Heather Simmons (D, Glassboro).The 1964 Supreme Court decision in Reynolds v. Sims required legislative districts' populations be equal as possible.In this case, Republican Frederick Scholz and Democrat A. Donald Bigley were sent to Trenton for a two-year term beginning in 1966.[16] The Cumberland County city of Bridgeton and some adjacent townships were added in the 1991 redistricting but the boroughs of Pitman and Glassboro were moved out.[17] The only changes made during the 2001 redistricting were the removal of Woodbury and the addition of Elk Township and Clayton borough.
