The 190 full days Christie spent out of state in 2015 — plus another 71 partial days — were the most expensive of his six-year tenure, at about $614,000. And the costliest period of last year came in the final quarter, when Christie spent 32 days out of state in the thick of his campaign for the presidency. That final three months cost $193,890.
The state police's executive
protection unit has been required to provide full-time security for New
Jersey governors since 1984. Noting this mandate, Christie has said he
will keep billing the state for his security, whether he's making stump
trips for Donald Trump or shopping at a local business.
"That's not my
choice. I don't think I'm going to get shot at the Kings (food market)
in Mendham, OK? But the State Police believe that the appropriate thing
to do to protect me and my family is for them to be with me at all
times. And they are with me at all times," Christie said. "You want to
change that, run for office and change it."

The Gadfly cannot respond to any comments about the personal family problems of any member of the Mullica Twp. Committee that do not concern the administration of the town.
