Elder (?) announces re-election bid in Lewes

Joe Elder stood in front of Lewes City Hall next to his beloved 1941 pickup truck.

The incumbent councilman pieced together the vehicle that he calls a rat-rod, a combination of parts – the cab is a Dodge, the engine and chassis are Chevy, and the bed is homemade.

Elder welded and hammered until all of the pieces became something he could drive.

That’s the same approach Elder said he’s been taking in his first term: piecing together a resume of helping people and getting things done.
