Mary Keating Croce and Barbara Berman, both Camden County Democrats, represented the sixth district from 1976 to 1980, and Burlington County Democrats Barbara Kalik and Catherine Costa represented the 7th district from 1982 to 1984.

Nice headline after and African-American woman gets selected.
And now...
Most likely Connie Wagner and Joan Voss will be selected as candidates in the 38th.
This only proves
that the BCDO found two female puppets instead of the traditional male puppets. Al this proves is that there are women equally able to be used for the political purposes of a political boss obsessed with power.
