Bob Menendez holds slim lead over rival, latest poll shows

Sen. Bob Menendez is holding on to a five-point lead on his rival ahead of the midterms — but his supporters aren’t very enthusiastic about their choice, a poll released Wednesday found.

The Rutgers-Eagleton survey put the embattled Democrat — who fended off federal corruption charges last year — ahead of Republican Bob Hugin among likely voters, 51 percent to 46 percent.

But while 37 percent of Hugin supporters are very eager about their choice only 19 percent of Menendez backers are with theirs, the survey showed.

The US Senate candidates faced off in their only debate Wednesday night.
