TRENTON, N.J. Republican Chris Christie has defeated Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine in New Jersey.
With 71 percent of precincts reporting Tuesday night, Christie had 50 percent of the vote to Corzine's 44 percent.
Christie, a 47-year-old former federal prosecutor, became the first member of his party in a dozen years to win a statewide contest in heavily Democratic New Jersey.
The Republican victory deals a blow to President Barack Obama as he readies for next year's midterm elections. Obama campaigned heavily for Corzine.

Star-Ledger just put a check next to Christie’s name on their election returns board. Hopefully, he will be much better than the last Republican governor of NJ, Bush friend Christie Whitman. I think he will.

Rove just released some big numbers. Conservatives voted unlike 2008. 300% increases in some counties. It may be enough to take care of the fraud.
