Menendez to face challenger for Democratic Senate nomination

A Democratic political pundit and attorney is challenging New Jersey's U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez for their party's nomination.

Michael Starr Hopkins has filed paperwork to run in the June primary against the two-term incumbent, who's facing a retrial on federal corruption charges after his first trial ended in a hung jury last fall.

Hopkins says it's important politicians reflect their constituents' values. The Jersey City resident outlined his reasons for seeking the seat in an op-ed piece discussing issues such as health care, education and taxes.

I adore facts and data and abhor lies and liars.

If he’s from Jersey City, I don’t really think he wants to openly reflect his constituents values.  Doing so could put him in the pokey next to Menendez.
