The 35th District has always been based around Paterson since its creation in 1973. The 1973 through 1981 version of the district included Paterson, Prospect Park, Hawthorne , and North Haledon.[6] A slight shift in the district occurred in the 1981 redistricting when North Haledon was removed, and Haledon and Elmwood Park were added.[7] West Paterson was added and North Haledon was re-added to the district in the 1991 redistricting.[8] In the 2001 redistricting , West Paterson swapped places with Totowa and Bergen County borough Glen Rock was added.[9]
