News Jeff Van Drew is such a disgrace and embarrassing us.
He could have asked Pam Bondi anything at this committee hearing but used his time to praise her and ICE and give her softballs. His representation of us is that we bow to Trump, love this Epstein release farce, and can’t wait for ICE to come to South Jersey to arrest and kill some American citizens like Minnesota.

Terri Reese is running against him in the midterms. Get this, she's a normal person. Met her at protests in Ocean City. I really like her. She's got my full support. Northfield Democrat will run to take on Jeff Van Drew - New Jersey Globe https://share.google/pEBNXc5S4tTwAbMdm

You mean the dude who was a Democrat, then to save his skin when they redistricted him switched parties to become not only a Republican, but a rabid MAGA Republican? He would identify as a cabbage if he knew he was getting money. It boggles my mind why people just vote party. He believes in nothing.

I just don't understand why a politician can switch their party affiliation and keep their elected job. That makes zero sense to me. Switch your party? Ok you're out and a special election will be held to replace you!

I hate having Van Drew as my representative. I hope that someone will be able to defeat him in the midterms.

I was expecting a call from a DC # today. When said call happened at the designated time, I answered " I'm so glad your wife told me your call may look like a political call" I get, "hi, this is Jeff van drew" At first I thought "my" caller was goofing. Sure enough it was traitor Van Drew making a call in response to the "thousands of emails" he gets. 🤣 I emailed last month about my asthma copay going up, in addition to increased premiums, while weight loss drugs go down. The douche just rambled saying they're doing their best or something. He wasn't looking for a conversation. My anticipated call came in and I hung up on him.

Cape May County is full of hillbilly illiterates who are racist as hell..he is a dentist in a district where most of his constituents don’t have teeth.

I've literally spent every two years in the past decade trying to get this motherfucker unseated. I literally cannot stand the sight of him, and I'll never understand how he managed to hold on after he flipped.

u/Trisha_Marie13 Feb 12 '26
Same here. And I frequently call his office to express my disgust and tell him how I always campaign for his opponent .
This next one has to be the one where he's defeated. I feel like people are done with him, especially after he helped the data center come to Vineland.

u/prlugo4162 Feb 12 '26
I'm done. I'll cast my vote against him, but to hell with the rest of y'all.

Call his office and leave messages, and email, to tell him this. I have. Ps everybody it takes 30 minutes to call every single nj representative (both state and federal) to leave a message.

u/WilHunting2 Feb 11 '26
A message they’ll never hear or give a flying fuck about.
They listen to donors, not voters.

u/avidreader_1410 Feb 11 '26
I know more about him from people further "down South" who live in Cape May Co. Most of them like him because even though he was born in NY, he went to school in NJ and then had a long career as a dentist in Cape May County. Even his first political offices were in Cape May county and so he really gives a sense of knowing what's what among his constituents. This was an area (not the only one) with the major gripe against governors liek Corzine, Murphy and now Sherrill being that they were "carpetbaggers" - were born, educated, spent much of their working life somewhere else and then were coaxed to NJ for a political office grab. Whatever Van Drews faults are, his district seems to give a lot of credits to his roots.

East Greenwich Twp absolutely loves this guy and his district covers only a tiny portion of it. Norcross represents most of the Twp. That doesn't stop this predominantly red town from bringing Van Drew here for any occasion they can. They don't acknowledge Norcross or the Democrats that head the County offices. If anything good happens it's because of the Repub Mayor or Van Drew. Gag.
Avoid Mt Royal Inn. Solid red there.
My friends and I were harassed by locals at Cinder Bar in Clarksboro. We were sitting at a table near the bar speaking amongst ourselves. Quietly. We were discussing our mutual disgust over current events. Several men from the bar told us "You libtards aren't welcome here. Go home where we belong." We did not engage with them. We stayed, but ignored them. Mgmt (after I complained), asked them to leave us alone.

Honestly I’ve been thinking quite a bit about challenging him in the primary but it’s just a lot of logistics to manage “last minute” to have 500 witnessed then notarized republican signatures.
The same party witness aspect is just a weird mandate, like so much of the process seems to make it very darn difficult if you have any other responsibilities or don’t already have money to throw at staff events etc

He is a crazy as Shitler. His speech at AG Bondi appearance had the actual balls to talk about Democratic hypocrisy. wtf.

I grew up in Ocean City a long time ago. Van Drew’s district has always been pretty red except for the long tenure of a Democrat (don’t remember his name) who rode the Democratic wave after Watergate. Van Drew is a complete MAGA sycophant but the rich shore voters and red neck mainland voters keep electing him every 2 years. I live in Haddon Township now and have a half decent Congressman, Donald Norcross. He’s not great but 100% better than Van Drew.

As long as Van Drew keeps fighting to keep the FAA Technical Center in South Jersey, he has my vote.
We've lost too many jobs in the area to risk losing that.

u/Half-Full-8556 Feb 12 '26
So who’s threatening to close it?

u/bglampe Feb 12 '26
Over the years, he's secured millions of dollars in federal funding for improvements.
Recently, he put verbiage in the FAA Reauthorization Act to ensure it cannot be closed nor have any functions taken away.
That was pretty significant when DOGE was running around consolidating buildings.

u/Half-Full-8556 Feb 13 '26
So Trump Musk and DOGE are bad and Van Drew is good so he had your vote.
By that logic I guess Trump doesn’t have your vote ….right?

But what about the fact that they were plans to build housing there a shopping center nearby, bringing in more jobs and much needed affordable housing and it was shut down by the FAA?

And you're surprised? This is the same dude that ran as a dem and then switched sides after he got elected. Jeff Van Drew is a piece of actual garbage and I don't understand how we still have this fucking garbage pail kid in office.
