The first major union endorsement came the month before from the Laborers International Union of North America led by Ray Pocino, whom Christie had appointed to the boards of both the Port Authority and the New Jersey Turnpike Authority."
He geared his entire reelection, not toward the citizens of NJ, but to boost his presidential aspirations.
Like Bill Maher said, "Chris Christie is 350 pounds of toast".
