Thomas P. Giblin

Thomas P. Giblin (born January 15 1947) is an American Democratic Party politician, who serves in the New Jersey General Assembly where he represents the 34th legislative district, having taken office on January 10, 2006.

Giblin was elected to the Assembly on November 8 2005, filling the seat of fellow Democrat Peter C. Eagler, who had held the seat in the Assembly since 2002 and was knocked off the legislative slate. [Brubaker, Paul. [http://www.montclairtimes.com/page.php?page=9624 "Giblin focusing forward: 34th District candidate is on the move toward Dem primary"] , "The Montclair Times", May 4, 2005. Accessed April 11, 2008. "Despite what some local offline Democratic candidates have said after incumbent Assemblyman Peter Eagler, D-34, was bumped off of the party line in favor of Giblin, Giblin maintains he is not part of a political machine."]

Giblin serves in the Assembly on the Regulated Professions Committee (as Vice-Chair), the Higher Education Committee and the Transportation, Public Works and Independent Authorities Committee.
