CHRISTIE TO ACCEPT PUBLIC FUNDS IN GUBERNATORIAL CAMPAIGN

Gov. Chris Christie will accept public funding to assist in his reelection bid. This means Christie will have to participate in two debates with Democrat challenger Barbara Buono. The governor has already raised over $4 million and will have $8 million plus in his warchest as he prepares for this November’s election. Christie will hold a sizable advantage over Buono, who has only raised $450,000.
