Christie Taken To Task By NJ 101.5’s Jersey Guys
Chris Christie appeared on NJ 101.5 to answer questions about John Inglesino. During the campaign, Mr. Christie has called for the end of pensions for part time state workers. However, Inglesino collects a state pension while working for State Senator Joe Pennacchio while also volunteering on the Christie camapaign.
The Lonegan campaign, also, has been quick to jump on this. Mayor Lonegan had this to say about the matter:
“The fact that one of Christie’s closest associates is double dipping from the same part time pension funds that Christie promises to end is not only alarming but also insulting to the taxpayers of New Jersey,” Lonegan said in a statement. “If he can’t prevent this type of disingenuous behavior within his own campaign, he cannot expect the voters of New Jersey to believe that he will follow through with his promise to end it in the state.
So, Christie called in to NJ 101.5’s Jersey Guys and defended his decision to keep Inglesino on as a volunteer on his campaign. The Jersey Guys would have none of it, though. Here is the audio of the interview:
