Twice-elected Mendham Mayor Christine Serrano Glassner today announced her campaign to challenge Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, hoping to use her strong ties to the national GOP and former President Donald Trump to take out the scandal-tarred lawmaker.
In a statement to Secrets, the mayor of Mendham Borough, which sits 40 miles from Manhattan, blasted Menendez’s “career of cronyism” and unbending support of President Joe Biden.“We need a fighter -- someone who believes hard working Americans matter, and who will stop Joe Biden’s failed economic policies,” she said.
She is something unique in New Jersey. Not only is she a rare elected Republican but she is also the first woman to be mayor of Mendham. Last year, Serrano Glassner, 60 and a mother of two daughters, won 61% of the vote in her reelection. Menendez, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, is underwater in job approval, 36%-45%, according to a Monmouth University poll released in August.
Her husband, Michael Glassner, was a senior official in Trump’s 2016 campaign and the 2020 campaign COO. He also heads the Patriot Legal Defense Fund Inc. created to help Trump with his legal fees. He is credited with organizing some of Trump’s biggest campaign rallies.So far only a couple of other lesser known Republicans have joined the race to get the chance to face Menendez in the 2024 election.
