Announced last year he'd run for the incumbent's Senate seate in 2014

Newark Mayor Cory Booker says he's giving New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg "space" to make a decision about running for re-election – but also acknowledged he still hasn't been able to get a meeting with the senior New Jersey Democrat. 

"I want to give him the space to make his own decision. I've announced my intention to run, but the reality is – is we've got a good Senator. He's been loyal. He's been there for a long time," Booker said during an interview on CNN Monday. "And I think that he's got a decision to make."
