Rzepkowski who accepted a position within Ehrlich's cabinet as Associate Deputy Secretary for the Department of Business and Economic Development.[2]
Gilleland was defeated in his first election as the incumbent in the 2006 general election by Pamela Beidle[3] The other two delegates for District 32, Democrats Mary Ann Love and Theodore Sophocleus both won reelection.
