Gilbert L. "Whip" Wilson (born March 17, 1947) is an American Democratic Party politician who has been the sheriff of Camden County, New Jersey since December 2015.

He served in the United States Air Force from 1965 to 1969, in a tour of duty including San Antonio, Texas, Little Rock, Arkansas, Thailand and Vietnam.

[3] While serving in the Assembly, his 5th District running mates included Senators Norcross until November 4, 2014, and Nilsa Cruz-Perez since December 15, 2014 and Assemblymembers Angel Fuentes from Wilson's entrance until Fuentes' resignation in June 2015 and Patricia Egan Jones for the last month of Wilson's Assembly term.

[4] After being elected to complete the unexpired term in a 2010 special election and two successful subsequent re-election bids for full terms, Wilson announced his intention to seek the office of Camden County Sheriff in 2015 and retire from the Assembly.

[5] After he won the November general election for sheriff, Wilson resigned his Assembly seat on December 2, 2015, due to a 1971 law that requires the sheriff-elect to be sworn in within 30 days of the election and a law that bans dual officeholding in New Jersey.
