In the event that state Senator Sandra Cunningham (D-31) vacates her seat, up to 326 Democratic committee members in her district would pick her successor. By John Heinis/Hudson County View The possibility of Cunningham, 72, retiring came to light in a New Jersey Globe report yesterday that indicated she has been hospitalized for nearly two months due to declining cognitive health issues. First elected in 2007, the five-term senator has not been to Trenton since voting on the budget in June and attorney Matthew Burns has since been placed in charge of her personal affairs.
