Christie joined Quinn’s Republican challenger, Bruce Rauner, at a couple of private events before hitting a bar-restaurant near the Old State Capitol Wednesday.
Christie won’t let up in attacking Illinois, even if Rauner wins the election.
“Absolutely, we’ll try to take jobs away from Illinois, and Rauner will try to take jobs away from New Jersey,” Christie said. “That’s the competitive process, okay? And our states have to succeed or fail based on the policies we put forward and the quality of the leadership that we have. So, you bet. I’m going to try to steal jobs from Rauner, but I’ll guarantee you this much: I won’t be nearly as successful as we would be if Pat Quinn’s here for another four years.”
Christie said a full term of Quinn should be enough to convince voters it’s time for a change.
