CHERRY HILL, N.J. — A contrite Christopher J. Christie, the Republican former prosecutor running for governor on a platform of corruption busting and ethical reform, apologized Tuesday for failing to report a $46,000 loan to a top aide on his tax returns and financial-disclosure forms.

Christopher J. Christie, the Republican candidate for governor, on Tuesday.

“When I make mistakes, I’m going to admit them,” he said, adding that he had already amended some of those filings and would finish the rest by Friday. “It was certainly nothing that I was trying to conceal or hide.”

But Mr. Christie, who resigned last December as United States attorney for New Jersey to challenge Gov. Jon S. Corzine, stood by his decision to lend the money in 2007 to his subordinate, Michele A. Brown, whom he promoted several months later. He said he saw no reason to end that financial relationship when he left the office or now.
