New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie says he was elected because he believes in less government, lower taxes and in empowering local officials to fix their problems. When responding to a reporter’s question about his “confrontational tone,” he says he will continue to answer questions directly and that his positions may lead to disagreement. He says people in New Jersey will not have to wonder where he is on a position. He came to govern, not to escape from tough answers or worry about reelection.
