Could Bob Menendez run for re-election after being found guilty of corruption?
Fox News
Sen. Bob Menendez's guilty verdict on corruption charges doesn't stop him from serving in the Senate or running for re-election in New Jersey.
Within moments of the news breaking, Menendez's Democratic colleagues began to call for his resignation, with some even threatening to expel him from Congress.

Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., issued a prompt statement asking Menendez to step down following the verdict. Follow Julia's reporting on X at @JuliaaJohnson_ and send tips to Julia.Johnson@fox.com.
