N.J. Sen. Kyrillos will play underdog in this year’s U.S. Senate race
State Sen. Joseph Kyrillos is a patient man.
For the last 24 years, Kyrillos has bided his time in Trenton. He has been a loyal foot soldier for Republican administrations and a state party chairman. He has been one of the more civil lawmakers, never considered a partisan bomb thrower. And maybe most important, he is a close friend of Gov. Chris Christie and for the past two years has been his right-hand man in the Legislature.
Now Kyrillos (R-Monmouth) wants to move up to the U.S. Senate, and faces only token opposition in the Republican primary on Tuesday. (Friedman, The Star-Ledger)
