\”Either Congressman Andrews has misrepresented the truth on his official government website or he is the victim of identity theft and someone else is using his campaign credit card to sleep at the Holiday Inn,\” Glading asserted.

\”I demand that Mr. Andrews tell his constituents the truth,\” added Glading. \”After all, it\’s their tax dollars that are paying for his website.\”

\”And while he\’s at it, Congressman Andrews should explain why he spent more than $82,000 on rooms and parties at luxury hotels in places like New York, Miami and Beverly Hills,\” Glading concluded. \”The last time I looked, Beverly Hills wasn\’t located in the First District.\”

Chew is 43 years old, and is employed as a Camden City Police Officer. A graduate of Gloucester Catholic High School and a member of St. Michael\’s Roman Catholic Church, he has a Master Degree in Administration Science from Farleigh Dickson University.

He and his wife Lisa have four children, Ricky (20), Amy (17) Timmy (9) and Courtney (4). 

Chew says if he is elected he would lower taxes in Gibbstown by pushing for more shared services. \”I have been walking door to door in Gibbstown since Labor Day. I have heard the residents loud and clear. I will continue to listen to them once I am elected on November 2, 2010. 

\”I have a great deal of experience in government and of managing people. My budget experience in government and my financial experience with my home finances make me well qualified. 

\”I am committed to the residents of Gibbstown and I bring fresh ideas to the Town Government. I am endorsed by Mayor George W. Shivery, Jr.

(former Gloucester City High School teacher) and want to support his many successful accomplishments including roads, water and low taxes. Gibbstown is a great place to raise a family. I want to keep it that way. I believe there is more to accomplish in this town without going over budget. I am a firm believer in shared services to keep the cost of government under control. I would encourage the residents to contact me directly with any new idea(s) they would have to make our community more efficient. We need more input from the residents and I would be happy to hear their fresh ideas. It would be my privilege to become a member of government in the town my family and I picked to raise our family.

\”I grew up in Gloucester City and lived there for over 30 years. My mother\’s maiden name is Hagan. I hope anyone that knows anyone from Gibbstown will tell them to vote for me\”.
