WASHINGTON -- A majority of New Jersey voters support U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez for re-election, giving him a 21-point lead over Republican challenger Bob Hugin in a Monmouth University poll released Thursday.
Menendez, D-N.J., received 53 percent to 32 percent for the former Celgene Corp. executive.
It is the second survey putting Menendez up by double digits following the Justice Department's decision not to retry him on federal corruption charges. He led Hugin, 49 percent to 32 percent, in a Quinnipiac University poll released last month.
"The current state of the race does speak to what is perhaps the incumbent's biggest strength: being a Democrat in a blue state in a year that is looking very good for Democrats," said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute.

I bet his poll numbers would shoot up if he were found in bed with a dead woman and a live boy.

Apparently NJ voters think it’s A-OK for their senior Sinator flying off to the Dominican Republic to have sex with children.

The Fake News Crowd MSM never even mentioned that he was having a trial against charges brought against him and what he did. The Media knows that they protected their man. The Rats in N.J. rule over this over taxed state.

Probably the same folks who think Hillary never told a lie and had the election stolen from her by the Russians.

New Jersey may not be the deepest part of The Swamp but it’s not far from it.

Sad...I am from NJ and Hudson County where Crooked Bob cut his teeth.... and Jersey wonders why we pay the highest taxes in the nation?? Because of scumbags like Bob Menendez that run towns like Union City into the ground, get to bloat their Education budgets from the State coffers.... just like jersey City, Newark, West New York, Elizabeth, Camden, Trenton, etc.... all dirty scumbag democrats.

Once he was found not guilty, everyone knew this would be the result.

When the Lord gives this world an enema, the nozzle will go in somewhere in New Jersey - probably Newark.
