Senator Robert Menendez’ campaign official says he did not meet with West New York Mayor Felix Roque

WEST NEW YORK — West New York Mayor Dr. Felix Roque announced his endorsement Friday of incumbent Senator Robert Menendez (D-32) at an impromptu two-minute press conference held at his new headquarters on 53rd Street and Palisade Avenue.
In response to the Reporter’s article story earlier that day, which quoted sources close to the mayor claiming Menendez had met with Roque the evening before the press conference, Menendez for Senate Press Secretary Melissa Castro stated, “Senator Menendez did not meet with Mayor Roque last night.” — Gennarose Pope
