GOP Senate Candidate Wanted to Bar Women from Clubs

July 21, 2018 at 2:45 am EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Bob Hugin (R), who’s running against Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), “pushed back against efforts to allow women into all-male eating clubs while attending Princeton University,” The Hill reports.

“When Hugin was a student at Princeton in the 1970s, he fought back against efforts to allow women in as president of the Tiger Inn, one of the university’s all-male eating clubs, where upperclassmen dined.”
