Christie criticizes Langford’s leadership of Atlantic City
Things got heated once again when NJ Gov. Chris Christie and Atlantic City Mayor Lorenzo Langford exchanged insults over the state-run tourism district in AC.

Christie and Senate President Stephen Sweeney lambasted Langford’s comments and questioned his ability to successfully run the city.
