New Jersey Dems Asking Chris Christie To Resign


According to NJ Advance Media via NJ.com:

State Sens. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union) and Loretta Weinberg (D-Bergen), who are expected to co-sponsor the bill, said they are fed up with Christie’s frequent absences from New Jersey this year in the run-up to last week’s announcement that he’s running for the White House. The bill would require Christie and any future governor to resign in order to run for president.

“He’s not doing the state any good by spending the bulk of his time out of state,” Lesniak said. “And even when he’s in-state, he’s focusing on what he has to do to get elected president — which often runs contrary to what he ought to do for the state.”
Christie has been out of state for more than a third of his second term and more than half of this year.


Chris Christie won reelection then promptly bolted from the state to start laying the groundwork for his presidential run. Christie has attempted to use his position as chairman of the Republican Governors Association as a platform for his 2016 bid
