Brutal Senate Race in N.J. Voters’ Hands

“A bruising U.S. Senate race entered its final day Tuesday with New Jersey voters choosing between a former longtime Democratic congressman and the son of a popular former Republican governor. Democrat Robert Menendez, who has lost only one election in more than 30 years in public office, faced state Sen. Tom Kean Jr. in a campaign filled with personal attacks and fueled by discontent over the war in Iraq.

With control of Congress in the balance, the national parties pumped millions of dollars into the Garden State to help their candidates air ads pounding their messages home: Kean claimed Menendez is corrupt; Menendez said Kean would be a mouthpiece for President Bush.”
