Corzine Leades Christie by Two
An early look at the 2009 New Jersey governor's race: Governor Jon Corzine, a Democrat, leads U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie (generally regarded as the strongest Republican candidate) 43%-41%.
I'm actually a little bit surprised that Corzine has any lead at all. His tenure has been tumultuous and Christie has a corruption-fighting reputation. We should have two good gubernatorial races in 2009, in New Jersey and Virginia.

GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
