Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has announced that he’s not seeking to run for the seat of incumbent Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) amid mounting calls for the lawmaker to resign after recently being indicted on bribery charges.
Mr. Christie, who’s also running for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, made the comments on Sept. 24 during an interview with “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker, who asked the 61-year-old Republican whether he would challenge Mr. Menendez if he ends up losing the presidential race.
