Description

Former Cape May County freeholder Jeff Van Drew is running for re-election to the Assembly seat he picked up in 2001 with McGreevey on the top of the ticket.

Without Bret Schundler to drag down Republican performance, Van Drew could be in trouble in a basically Republican district.

Van Drew will presumably have to face off against former Assemblyman John Gibson (R), who came in third behind Van Drew by a handful of votes.
