Very sad to see the devolution of Rep. Van Drew. As a 40 year resident of Dennis, I remember him out front of the Acme running for Fire Commissioner. I’ve always been proud of his representation because he always put Cape May County over party standing up to both sides. Not anymore. Van Drew was never a partisan hack but that’s all changed. His statements used to be fair minded. I say this as a Republican. No party has all the answers. The old Van Drew would’ve never missed the beach funding situation but only politics matters
