Embattled New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez will not run for re-election in November, although he still refuses to hand in his resignation, The Post has learned.
“He will not be running,” said a source close to Menendez.
The three-term federal senator, who resigned his powerful position as chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee following the initial indictment last year, faces an 18-count indictment — and stiff competition from a group of Democratic primary challengers.

If the GOP can’t take the Senate they all should quit.

As a resident of New Jersey, I am happy Gold Bar Bob won't resign.
If he does, Phil Murphy would appoint his wife and then she could run as an incumbent.

He’ll leg out the end of his term in exchange for a federal prosecutor deciding there’s not enough evidence to indict.

Doesn’t matter. The phat boy gov(ex) would be our only chance. It would excite me like the other one in Md.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Was Bob perp-walked? Or is that only for Republicans?
It’s outrageous that considering he is charged with selling his office he is not forbidden by voting on legislation.
To: End Times Sentinel
I wonder.
I wonder if he was canny enough to gather dirt, serious dirt, on people who WILL help him out here, in exchange for his silence.

NJ will replace Menendez with another Communist. NJ got plenty of them!

Don’t all Senators have $100 bills and gold bars in their suits?

seems like he would help his party to et the gov appoint someone new.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Why would he resign? His value drops really fast (and low) once he is no longer in office.
Give ‘em hell, Bob!! /s

Given you can make a fortune in cattle futures with just a couple grand once you are in office, you only accept gold bars because you are addicted to the thrill of 'getting away with it'.
Blob has a criminal mindset, it is unfortunate that the Fleds settled for the simple crime actus reus as it sat, rather than ABSCAM the m----------- and put him away.

Gov Murphy should have got kicked out and lost the election by the truck driver. Why are the most corrupt states always controlled by Democrats?
