Sex?

Is this person male or female? The article variously refers to "she" (second paragraph) and "his" (fourth paragraph). --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 02:29, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

New Jersey State Assembly

Members of the New Jersey State Assembly are Assemblymen or Assemblywoman, they are not and never have been called a Representative. I am posting discussion before I make the appropriate changes so people don't flip out on me about not discussing it first. YborCityJohn (talk) 01:35, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
