New Jersey first lady Tammy Murphy’s campaign manager is leaving after a turbulent start to her bid for the Senate, a spokesperson confirmed to POLITICO.

The departure of Max Glass — who was announced as Murphy’s campaign manager in January — comes amid important party conventions and early troubles for Murphy. She trails in public polling to her chief rival, Democratic Rep. Andy Kim, and lost a key early contest in Monmouth County — her home of 25 years — to Kim earlier this month.

The campaign did not give a reason for Glass’ departure, which was first reported by The New York Times. There is no immediate replacement for the role.

“We are extremely grateful for the value and the passion that Max brought to our team and his efforts to stand up this campaign,” spokesperson Alex Altman said in a statement. “We have momentum and a clear path to winning the primary on June 4 and making Tammy Murphy the Democratic nominee to the U.S. Senate in this November’s election.”

1. Andy Kim is the kind of lawmaker who is 'beloved'.

IMO, it was foolish for her to jump into the race after he announced.
