Bob Menendez, who has not said whether he is seeking reelection. When asked if Kim had momentum in the race, Murphy said: “No, he does not. … he oversees 35 percent of Monmouth County , that makes sense. Burlington, that’s his county.” She declined to address Hunterdon.
“I thought it actually might have made sense, but I had no vote in it,” Murphy told reporters. She did not directly answer whether she would support a similar measure in counties that she is expected to win, such as Middlesex.
