Chris Christie Campaign Kickoff

Former U.S Attorney Chris Christie will formally kick off his campaign for the GOP nomination for NJ Governor this Wednesday, February 4.

From Christie's email announcement:

As your U.S. Attorney for the past seven years, I never shied away from the tough decisions. During my tenure, we relentlessly prosecuted countless public officials for corruption and corporate executives who cheated their workers. I will use that same hard work and determination to take back New Jersey and once again make our state a place we are proud to call home.

We know our government spends too much, borrows too much, and taxes too much. I will hold our government accountable to the people of New Jersey and bring real change to Trenton. I have the experience and the will to make the tough decisions necessary to put our state on the right track.

Chris will be stumping throughout the state on Wednesday and Thursday with the following events:
