"Tammy Murphy Contemplating Senate Run Amidst Menendez's Indictment"

Tammy Murphy, the First Lady of New Jersey, has received calls from political advisors and key Democrats about running for the U.S. Senate in 2024. If she decides to run, Murphy could bring fundraising and policy expertise to the race and potentially become the state's first woman U.S. Senator. While she is listening to supporters, she is not actively considering it yet. Murphy's options include challenging incumbent Bob Menendez in the Democratic primary or seeking an open seat if Menendez doesn't run. Other potential candidates include Reps. Andy Kim, Frank Pallone Jr., Josh Gottheimer, Mikie Sherrill, and Senate Majority Leader Teresa Ruiz. It remains uncertain whether a sitting governor can deliver organization lines to his wife.
