Christie May Reach for Reset Button in New Jersey State of State
On Tuesday, Christie will deliver his state of the state address, potentially the biggest speech he’ll make before announcing his presidential intentions, a decision that could come by the end of the month.
After a difficult year, Christie may “try to regain some momentum and frame his tenure, both for the New Jersey audience as well as the national audience,” said Ben Dworkin, who heads a New Jersey politics institute at Rider University.
Christie has been hounded by the so-called Bridgegate scandal and related ongoing federal criminal probes, as well as controversy over whether he should have gone to Texas for a Jan. 4 Dallas Cowboys game, the trip paid for by team owner Jerry Jones.
