There has been a lot of talk recently about Sen. Bob Menendez’s seat in the United States Senate.
New Jersey first lady Tammy Murphy and Rep. Andy Kim have announced that they are running for the seat.
Despite bribery allegations against Menendez, he says he still thinks he can win another term.
"Of course, I can. It's all one moment in time, including your contributions to it, of negative stories. When we start telling our story in January at the trial through motions and other things, we will change that dynamic,” Menendez says.
