TL;DR Summary

New Jersey first lady Tammy Murphy has suspended her run for U.S. Senate, citing the potential for a divisive and negative campaign. Her decision comes after embattled Sen. Bob Menendez announced he would not be seeking the Democratic nomination while facing federal corruption charges. This clears the path for Rep. Andy Kim to potentially win the Democratic nomination during New Jersey's June 4 primary. Murphy stated that she will focus on supporting President Biden's reelection and ensuring victories for Democrats in New Jersey, while the Republican primary for the Senate seat is set for the same date.
