Vince Polistina has taken finally taken the oath of office to become the new state senator for New Jersey’s 2nd Legislative District in Atlantic County.

“I’m honored to represent the hard-working people of Atlantic County in the New Jersey Senate,” said Senator Polistina (R-2). “I’ll fight for lower taxes, improved affordability, and economic development and jobs for our community. I’ll work to make sure Atlantic City and our important casino industry come back stronger following the pandemic.”

Polistina was selected to fill the remainder of former Senator Chris Brown’s term following his resignation from office and was elected by voters to a new full term for the upcoming legislative session beginning in January.

He will provide constituent services out of Brown’s former legislative office in Linwood until his new office is opened in January.

“Too many people are still having trouble with unemployment claims and getting the services they need at the MVC,” added Polistina. “Some have been waiting weeks or months for help. That’s why it’s critically important that we hit the ground running with our constituent services operation. I want Atlantic County families to know they will have someone fighting for them every step of the way.”
