Like a Rock

Chris Christie (R) and Jon Corzine (D)

We have yet another poll of this morning on the NJ governor’s race. And it’s more bad news for Chris Christie. According to the Rutgers-Eagleton poll, it’s Corzine over Christie by 3 points.

The key here though is that Corzine is really not doing any better than he’s been doing for a long time. At least not in absolute terms. He’s at 39%. But Christie is dropping like a stone. He’s down to 36%. That’s going on a 15 point drop from where he was just a couple months ago. Also worth noting, independent candidate Chris Daggett is up to 20% in this poll. If he’s really at 20%, that gets you into pretty volatile territory where something unexpected could happen.
