A Public Policy Polling survey out Thursday reveals New Jersey Chris Christie is making a comeback, at least in New Hampshire.
After lingering near the bottom of the presidential pack and being relegated to the under card debate last time around, the poll shows Christie in fourth place with 10 percent of the vote in New Hampshire among Republican primary voters.
Donald Trump is still leading the back with 27 percent of the vote. Ted Cruz is in second place with 13 percent of the vote and Rubio is holding on in third with 11 percent.
Christie’s rise, however, is significant given that the same poll in October found the governor was in the low single digits with 3 percent of the vote. Christie – who has bet his campaign on success in New Hampshire–won a key endorsement from the New Hampshire Union Leader Sunday. Since the Paris terrorist attacks, he has also worked to contrast his experience as U.S. Attorney who prosecuted terrorists after 9/11 with the death of foreign policy experience coming from Donald Trump and Ben Carson.
Christie’s favorability rating now exceeds every other Republican candidate in the race at 61 percent.
“Dearly beloved, we are gathered to remember a campaign that never got anywhere…”
