Christie's approval hits record low; most say he should have been charged for Bridgegate

According to a Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind poll released Tuesday morning, Christie’s approval has dropped to 18 percent among New Jersey voters — down from 21 percent in October.

“Governor Christie has been abandoned by virtually everyone, which is a far cry from where he once sat atop a field of aspiring presidential candidates who cut a more polarizing figure than he did,” poll director Krista Jenkins said in a release accompanying the results.

It’s the lowest approval rating a PublicMind poll has ever measured for a New Jersey governor since it began taking surveys in 2002. It’s also just 1 percentage point higher than the lowest poll rating POLITICO New Jersey could find for any New Jersey governor in history.
