New Jersey's 32nd Legislative District is one of 40 districts that make up the map for the New Jersey Legislature. It encompasses the Bergen County boroughs of Edgewater and Fairview and the Hudson County municipalities of East Newark, Guttenberg, Harrison, Kearny, North Bergen, Secaucus, and West New York.[1]
Demographic information
As of the 2010 United States Census, the district had a population of 208,639, of whom 164,180 (78.7%) were of voting age. The racial makeup of the district was 125,815 (60.3%) White, 13,001 (6.2%) African American, 1,336 (0.6%) Native American, 25,317 (12.1%) Asian, 140 (0.1%) Pacific Islander, 33,608 (16.1%) from some other race, and 9,422 (4.5%) from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 101,723 (48.8%) of the population.[2]
The district had 100,273 registered voters as of June 30, 2015[update], of whom 39,546 (39.4%) were registered as unaffiliated, 51,768 (51.6%) were registered as Democrats, 8,890 (8.9%) were registered as Republicans and 69 (0.1%) were registered to other parties.[3]
Political representation
The 32nd District is represented in the State Senate by Nicholas Sacco (D, North Bergen) and in the General Assembly by Vincent Prieto (D, Secaucus) and Angelica M. Jimenez (D, West New York).[4]
District and election history
When the 40-district map was created in 1973, the 32nd District consisted of most of northern Jersey City and North Bergen.[5] For the 1981 redistricting, again a northern section of Jersey City was included as well as North Bergen, Secaucus, Kearny, East Newark, and Harrison.[6] No major changes occurred in the 1991 redistricting though a narrower portion of Jersey City made up a part of the 32nd District and Fairview and Edgewater were added to the district for the first time.[7] In the 2001 redistricting, Edgewater was removed and the Jersey City portion of the district was relegated to just the northern corner of the city.[8] All of Jersey City was removed in the 2011 redistricting, but Edgewater was re-added and Guttenberg and West New York were added to the district for the first time.[1]
