Connecticut's 135th House of Representatives district explained

State:Connecticut
District:135
Chamber:House of Representatives
Representative:Anne Meiman Hughes
Party:Democratic
Residence:Easton

The one hundred thirty-fifth Connecticut House of Representatives district elects one member of the Connecticut House of Representatives. Its current representative is Anne Hughes. Before 2002, the district contained the towns of Easton, Redding and parts of Newtown and Weston; boundary changes which took effect for the 2002 election removed Newtown and part of Redding from the district and added the remaining portion of Weston. The 135th District was a safe Republican seat in the House, in part due to the lack of Democratic opposition, but an increased Democratic Party presence in recent years has changed this.
