Six N.J. newspapers call on Christie to resign
Corrections and clarifications: This post has been updated to correct the number of newspapers joining in the editorial.
Six New Jersey newspapers issued a joint editorial Tuesday calling on Gov. Chris Christie to resign in the wake of his failed presidential campaign and his subsequent endorsement of rival Donald Trump.
The six newspapers including the Asbury Park Press, the Cherry Hill Courier-Post and the Morristown Daily Record all Gannett-owned papers that are part of the USA TODAY NETWORK were apparently spurred to editorial outrage by a Monday press conference in which Christie refused to answer questions about anything other than his nomination of a state Supreme Court judge. Asked why, Christie replied, "Because I don't want to."
"Were fed up with Gov. Chris Christies arrogance," the papers wrote. "Were fed up with his opportunism. Were fed up with his hypocrisy."
The joint editorial notes that Christie spent part of 261 days out of state last year and traveled out of state to endorse Trump and campaign with him after he quit the race Feb. 10.
"For the good of the state, its time for Christie to do his long-neglected constituents a favor and resign as governor. If he refuses, citizens should initiate a recall effort," the editorial said.
