Newark, N.J. Mayor Cory Booker (D) will reportedly make a decision soon on whether or not to challenge Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) in next year’s gubernatorial election. 

According to a report in The Newark Star-Ledger on Thursday, Booker will finalize his plans by next month after he meets with prospective fundraisers on the West Coast to evaluate their level of support.
