Early LifeA resident of Evesham Township, New Jersey, Howarth received a bachelor's degree from Trenton State College (now The College of New Jersey) with a major in health and physical education. He has worked for the Lenape Regional High School District as a special education paraprofessional.[2] Burlington County PoliticsHowarth served on the Board of Education of the Evesham Township School District from 2003 to 2007 and on the Evesham Township Council from 2009 to 2011. He was elected to the Burlington County Board of chosen freeholders and was sworn into office on January 3, 2012, as part of an all-Republican board.[3] Howarth chose not to run for re-election in 2014 after serving a single term as a freeholder in order to allow himself an opportunity to take care of personal health issues.[4] New Jersey AssemblyHowarth was elected to the Assembly in November 2015 after Assemblyman Christopher J. Connors retirement. In September 2017, after two-term incumbent Maria Rodriguez-Gregg decided against running for election after an incident earlier that year in which police thought that she was driving under the influence following a traffic accident, the Burlington County Republican Committee chose Burlington County Freeholder Ryan Peters to run for the Assembly seat as Howarth's running mate.[5] In the November 2017 general election, Howarth (with 28,841; 25.1% of all ballots cast) and Peters (with 28,671 votes; 25.0%), defeated Democratic challengers Joanne Schwartz (28,321; 24.7%) and Maryann Merlino (28,196; 24.6%) to win both Assembly seats from the district for the Republicans.[6] With Joanne Schwartz, the closest Democratic candidate 350 votes behind Peters, the Democratic Party had considered filing for a recount.[7] Of all 40 districts, the race in the 8th District was the closest in the state, with 650 votes separating the first and fourth vote-getters.[8] After the 8th District's Senator Dawn Addiego switch her party from republican to democrat, Howarth allegedly attempted to do the same. Making the Burlington County GOP drop support for Howarth and instead supported the Burlington County Sheriff Jean Stanfield who also had the support of Assemblyman Ryan Peters. [9] Committees
