WEST WINDSOR, N.J. (AP) — Gov. Chris Christie will be campaigning with New
Jersey's Republican candidate for U.S. Senate on
Monday.
The governor hopes to give state Sen. Joe Kyrillos'
campaign a boost by appearing with his friend of 20 years at a diner in West
Windsor.
The two last appeared together in February when Christie endorsed Kyrillos to
run against Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez.
Christie and Menendez are well-known adversaries. Their dislike for one
another dates back six years to when Christie, as a federal prosecutor,
subpoenaed Menendez during his first U.S. Senate campaign. The probe went
nowhere.
Christie says he'll be visible in the campaign's final weeks.
The governor has been raising money for Kyrillos, who trails by
double-digits.
New Jersey has not elected a Republican senator since
the '70s.
