DescriptionIn 1974, Atlantic County voters changed the county governmental form under the Optional County Charter Law to the executive form. The charter provides for a popularly-elected executive and for a nine member freeholder board, responsible for legislation. The freeholders are elected to staggered three-year terms. Five of the freeholders represent equally populated districts; four are elected from the county-at-large.

At-Large district encompassing all of Atlantic County. Two seats are up for election in
years that are one more than a multiple of three (ex: 2002, 2005, 2008). Top two
finishers in the multi-candidate race win office.
