(AP) — Former U.S. Attorney Chris Christie (KRIS'-tee) has won the Republican nomination for New Jersey governor and will face incumbent Democrat Jon Corzine in November.
Christie defeated former Bogota Mayor Steve Lonegan and Assemblyman Richard Merkt in Tuesday's primary. The Associated Press called the race based on an analysis of partial election results.
Christie is trying to become the first Republican elected in a New Jersey statewide race since 1997.
