Let's recap. #BridgeGate happened because Christie didn't get an endorsement he didn't need. He was winning by 30 points.

This is a tragedy for this woman and her loved ones and all the medical services that were delayed
due to deliberate closing of the GWB and brings light on the endangering recklessness of the act.

"Emergency responders also were late in getting to a third medical emergency that first morning of the lane closures. It took Favia nearly an hour to arrive at a building where a person was experiencing chest pains “due to standstill traffic on Route 46 East. The Mutual Aid ambulance coming from Palisades Park and paramedics coming out of Leonia were also delayed due to the excessive traffic,” he wrote."

I can imagine how pissed these hard working EMT workers are.. and everyone affected by the revenge closing.
