NJ Gov. Phil Murphy eyes crony to replace convicted Sen. Bob Menendez
[NYPOST] New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy is strongly considering appointing his former chief of staff to replace convicted US Sen. Bob Menendez, The Post has learned.

Ex-chief of staff George Helmy is a Murphy confidante who sources said did the governor’s iron fist work behind the scenes — and he could be headed to Washington when Menendez resigns effective Aug. 20.

Murphy has informed some Democratic Party leaders in the Garden State that he’s eyeing Helmy — now an executive vice president and external affairs and policy officer at RWJBarnabas Health — to fulfill Menendez’s term, which expires at the end of the year.

#1 Murphy "resigns"? Convicted felon should have been in jail the day of conviction instead of allowed to pick his exit date and "resign".
