Christie does well in hypothetical presidential campaign
Chris Christie has said he’s not eyeing a spot in the 2012 presidential race. But he’d do pretty well if he did.
A poll done by Fairleigh Dickinson University shows Obama would beat Christie by 6 percent in the 2012 election.
Though Christie couldn’t beat former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who both came out about even with Obama, his hypothetical 40 percent of supporters helped him outperform former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, NJ.com reports.
The poll consulted 800 registered voters, and showed Christie earned more support than Obama from independent voters.
