New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy will undergo surgery on Wednesday, according to his office
"On the morning of Wednesday, March 4th, Governor Murphy will undergo surgery at a hospital in New York City," his office announced in a press release Tuesday. The state's Lt. Gov. Sheila Oliver will serve as acting governor until further notice, according to the release. The planned surgery follows Murphy's announcement on Twitter last month that he has a tumor on his left kidney and planned to undergo a partial nephrectomy to remove it.

He also said that he is showing no symptoms and feels good, adding that he recently ran a 5K race and hopes to run another in April.
