The 2005 New Jersey General Assembly elections were held on November 7, 2003, for all 80 seats in the lower house of the New Jersey Legislature. The election was held during Democratic Governor Jim McGreevey's term. Democrats held a 44-36 majority in the lower house prior to the election. The members of the New Jersey Legislature are chosen from 40 electoral districts. Each district elects one State Senator and two State Assembly members. New Jersey uses coterminous legislative districts for both its State Senate and General Assembly.

The Democratic Party won a 47–33 majority. Democrats were able to flip one seat in the 4th district, one in the 19th (after the incumbent switched to the Republicans), and both seats in the 12th and 38th (including one from a Democrat-turned-Green). Republicans flipped one seat in the 14th.
