Codey)出任代州長一職。這已成為新州常見的情況。 根據新州憲法，當獲選的州長死亡、辭職、被撤職、沒有能力工作或在外州，便由州參議會主席出任代州長。 然而，州參議會主席仍保留原先的職位，因此在三個州政府最高權力部門中，他擁有其中兩個的決策權。 [b][color=blue]全國有七個州沒有設立副州長，新州是其中之一，但這情況將在2009年新一屆州長選舉時改變。因為在兩名州長先後提早離任後，選民於2005年投票通過修改州憲法。 2001年，新州第一次由州參議會主席出任代州長，因州長克莉絲蒂．惠特曼赴華府加入布希政府，所以由當時的州參議會主席迪法蘭西斯科(Donald DiFrancesco)出任代州長一年。 州長麥格瑞維於2004年公開宣布自己是同性戀者後辭職，由柯迪接任他餘下的14個月任期後，才開始推動設立副州長。麥格瑞維下台時，所剩任期來不及舉行補選。假如柯翟無法復任州長，柯迪是否做完剩下任期，要看有關柯翟的決定何時做出。[/b][/color] -- 作者： 借風 -- 發表時間： 2007/04/15 00:27am [quote][b]下面引用由[u]rainbow[/u]在 [i]2007/04/15 04:08pm[/i] 發表的內容：[/b] 我好奇, 當他們是州長時, 是否三個州長也住在州長的宮府 (Governor's Mansion) 或在他們原來的家住。此外，除了連續三個州長腿受傷，因為一些理由, 他們也不能完成他們的州長任期。 [/quote] [url=http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/legislativepub/statehousehistory.asp]New Jersey State House started a long renovation project in 1987[/url] Anyone know when it is completed?

[/equote] http://www.state.nj.us/hangout_nj/government_statehouse.html The History of the New Jersey State House Located in the heart of Trenton, the New Jersey State House is history come alive. Our State House is the second oldest still in use. (Maryland has the oldest.) For more than 200 years, New Jersey Senators, Assemblymen, and Governors have been making the laws of the state in this building. [b][color=blue][size=4]In 1999, the restoration of the State House dome was completed. The project began in October, 1996. The dome is covered with 48,000 pieces of gold leaf. Each piece of gold leaf cost $1.00 and was paid for with money raised by New Jersey school kids through the "Dimes for the Dome" program. As a thank you for their contributions, the dome stands in honor of New Jersey children. While the recent dome restoration cost more than $9 million, the original State House cost only $400 to construct. Architect Jonathan Doane designed the building, and it was completed in 1792. The building originally had a bell tower instead of a dome. The Senate and Assembly met on the first floor, and the Governor's office was on the second floor. [/b][/color][/size] As New Jersey got more legislators, it needed a bigger State House. In 1845, famous architect John Notman began the project of enlarging and improving the building. Notman designed a rotunda with an 80-foot dome to connect the old building to a new structure. He also added a porch with eight pillars and modernized the Senate chamber. In 1872 the Capitol was further renovated as new Senate and Assembly chambers were constructed. Architect Samuel Sloan oversaw the project. Unfortunately, on March 21, 1885, most of the State House was destroyed in a devastating fire. The building blazed for hours. Luckily, no one was hurt, and the Governor's Office, Senate and Assembly chambers, and the courts remained standing. Most of the historical documents were saved as well, thanks to Notman's fireproofing of the building 40 years earlier. However, the walls and roof were weakened, and the rotunda and dome were destroyed. In 1889, Lewis Broome began planning the repair of the State House. The rotunda and a new 145-foot dome were built, bigger and better than before. The dome is made of cast iron covered with copper and gold leaf. It weighs 205,640 pounds. The Latin phrase "Fiat Justitia Ruat Coelum" is written on the rotunda. It means "There must be justice even though the heavens fall." Broome further expanded the State House in American Renaissance style with a three-story wing on State Street and a redesigned Assembly wing. Occasional expansions were made through 1912. The main corridor was updated in the 1950s, but no major structural changes have been made since then. Today the State House continues to serve New Jersey as both a historical monument and a place of work. _____________________________________________________ http://www.njstatehouse.org/history.html 孏he New Jersey State House Today? For more than 200 years, the New Jersey State House has proudly served as the seat of our State government. While occupants have come and gone, it remains home to the State Legislature, the Governor's office and other Executive branch offices. In addition to quartering our elected officials, the State House stands as an impressive historic monument, rich in tradition and style. In fact, part of the original 1792 structure still exists, making our state capitol the second oldest in continuous use. [b][color=blue][size=4]A long renovation project began in 1987, which addressed structural, mechanical and electrical deficiencies in the State House, restored the legislative portion of the building and added legislative office space, known as the South Addition. Next, the State House Annex was renovated and a pedestrian tunnel and multi-level parking garage constructed. A public-private partnership allowed for the golden dome and interior rotunda space to be refurbished. A Welcome Center, cafeteria and landscaped "Plaza" are the most recent improvements. Hundreds of craftspeople and workers participated in these efforts, including carpenters, painters, electricians and plasterers, who dedicated months - in some cases, years - to the restoration and construction projects. Craftspeople specializing in such areas as stained glass restoration, gilding, millworking and decorative molding painstakingly recreated original details of the chambers, rotunda and Annex.  [/b][/color][/size] Under the New Jersey Arts Inclusion Act, state artists were commissioned to create artworks to commemorate this new chapter in the capitol's history. John Goodyear's marble bas-relief in the South Addition lobby depicts famous lawgivers of the ages. Marquetry walls by artist Hiroshi Murata incorporate architectural details in the intricate design of inlaid wood. A water sculpture by Clyde Lynds is a lively focal point for the Plaza. Many other impressive works are found throughout the complex. Memorabilia related to the history of the State House and Legislature are displayed in an exhibit space on the third floor. Additional exhibits are contained in the Welcome Center. Daily tours of the State House are available Monday through Saturday. Today, the New Jersey State House is a building all residents can be proud of. Visitors are encouraged to tour the building and learn more about its historical past. As home of our state democratic process, it will continue to serve the citizens of New Jersey as they come to participate in the shaping of public policy. -- 作者： rainbow -- 發表時間： 2007/04/19 07:57pm [UploadFile=NJState_House1_1177026948.jpg] [b][color=blue]  New Jersey State House - the place where the Governor and other state officials work.
