  • Preparedness Meets Opportunity: Women's Increased Representation in the New Jersey Legislature
    Preparedness Meets Opportunity: Women's Increased Representation in the New Jersey Legislature Susan J. Carroll and Kelly Dittmar July 2012 Center for American Women and Politics Eagleton Institute of Politics 191 Ryders Lane, New Brunswick, NJ 08901 www.cawp.rutgers.edu Women's Increased Representation in the New Jersey Legislature - 1 - ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Several studies on the descriptive representation of women in office have examined questions related to candidate emergence, often trying to explain why so few women run for office (e.g., Bledsoe and Herring 1990; Fox and Lawless 2004; Fulton et al. 2006; Lawless and Fox 2010; Sanbonmatsu, Carroll, and Walsh 2009). Another body of research has focused largely on how the political opportunities available to women affect their descriptive representation among elected officials, analyzing, for example, the effects of electoral arrangements, term limits, and quota systems (e.g., Carroll and Jenkins 2001; Dahlerup 2006; Darcy, Welch, and Clark 1994; Krook 2009; Rule and Zimmerman 1994). Far less often have the "supply" side and the "demand" side of women's political representation been investigated together in the same study in order to understand how they interact. Through a case study of women's representation in the legislature of one US state, New Jersey, we show not only that supply-side and demand-side factors are both important, but also that they can work together to produce a significant increase in the numbers of women serving in office. This paper examines the factors that account for the rapid rise in the numbers of women legislators in New Jersey, focusing primarily on the time period from 2004 through 2011.

  • 2007 Annual Report
    The New Jersey Maritime Pilot And Docking Pilot Commission 159th Annual Report 2007 Dear Governor Corzine and Members of the New Jersey Legislature, On January 9, 2006 a Colombia River Pilot was lost at sea while disembarking a cruise ship onto a Pilot Boat. In the same month another pilot was disembarking from a log carrier and lost his life while attempting to make the leap to a smaller vessel. Tragedy hit close to home with the collision of the MV Barkald and the S/V Essence (a recrea- tional vessel) in the Long Island Sound. The vessel was piloted by a New York State Licensed Pilot and resulted in the tragic death of one of the crew members of the S/V Essence. Between January 2006 and February 2007 five pilots across the United States have been lost. This rash of fatal incidents has prompted the New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission to take a closer look at the safety practices of New Jersey State Licensed Pilots. The Commission appointed a Safety Committee to investigate the use and availability of safety gear for pilots. The committee came back to the Commission with a detailed report, which resulted in the proposal of Safety Regulations at the Commission’s September 18, 2007 regular meeting. The regulations would require all pilots to wear U.S. Coast Guard approved personal flotation devices while boarding and disembarking vessels. It would also require pilots transferring between vessels to be equipped with man over- board beacons. The Commission continues to, in conjunction with the U.S.
