Cory Booker's #NJSen announcement was not open to the public.

He was introduced by former Sen. Bill Bradley at an event closed to the public.
And just as he offered to take questions …
Booker live feed cuts once he goes to questions.

The @CoryBooker campaign cuts off the video feed just as he starts taking questions at campaign launch event. #NJSEN

Why am I not surprised @CoryBooker's team cuts the stream during Q&A? Check back with @PolitickerNJ for more, Pizarro reporting.

If you were watching the live video feed on his campaign website, here’s what popped up before the first question from reporters:
Cory Booker: Working for you! Well, maybe if you hit him up on Twitter:
Yes. RT @josephirace: Mayor, will you continue respond to questions via Twitter if you are elected to Senate?
