New Jersey's 8th legislative district
[1] As of the 2020 United States census, the district had a population of 221,840, of whom 175,200 (79.0%) were of voting age.[5] For the 2024-2025 session, the 8th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the New Jersey Senate by Latham Tiver (R, Southampton Township) and in the General Assembly by Andrea Katz (D, Chesterfield Township) and Michael Torrissi (R, Hammonton).During the period of time after the 1964 Supreme Court decision in Reynolds v. Sims and before the establishment of a 40-district legislature in 1973, the 8th district encompassed the entirety of Somerset County.[7][8][9] During the three Senate elections held during this period (1965, 1967, and 1971), Republicans won all three races.[16] In the 1980s, the 8th became inclusive of most of Burlington County stretching from Washington Township north to Bordentown.
