The Democratic organization backing Rep. Rob Menendez amid his father, Sen. Bob Menendez's corruption trial, may play a crucial role. Despite the tarnished family name and federal evidence of gold bars and cash, Sen. Menendez could still secure a congressional seat for his son. The New Jersey primary election is set for Tuesday, with Rep. Andy Kim expected to win the Democratic nomination for Menendez's seat. Sen. Menendez, facing a corruption trial alongside co-defendants Fred Daibes and Wael Hana, arrived separately in Manhattan federal court on Monday afternoon for a half-day session. He is running for re-election as an independent, potentially impacting the Senate race and Democratic vote share. If convicted, the Senate may consider expelling him.
