Christie defeats incumbent Corzine in N.J. gubernatorial race

@tobyharnden Would Corzine have won if he'd just given every voter in NJ $25 - instead of spending $49 for each vote he got & still losing?

@markknoller @etcpolitics If Corzine and Deeds had won, do you think Obama would have commented publicly?

@jaketapper i hope Gov.-elect Christie knows that Corzine TV ad was nothing compared to the fat jokes late night comedians are about to make

@jackcafferty Sarah PalinSarah Palin, Glenn BeckGlenn Beck and Rush LimbaughRush Limbaugh failed to get their candidate elected in the N.Y. congressional race http://bit.ly/39CQHE

@jaketapper Another from Corzine, asked if Christie is fat: "Am I bald?"

@laurenyoung LaurenYoung: Who else thinks NYC mayoral race was close because people assumed Bloomberg would win and didn't vote?

@markknoller Gibbs says gubernatorial races were very local elections - showing voter concern about the economy - which Obama shares.

@markknoller WH spksmn Robt Gibbs says Pres. Obama is disappointed "his friend jon corzine" didn't win last night & phoned both Corzine and Creigh Deeds.

@JoeNBC I still can't believe that Chris ChristieChris Christie won by 4 points! Add Daggett's votes and Corzine was beaten by double digits.

@carr2n Wondering why NYC mayor's race was so close? @Awl nailed it yesterday. "voting against Mike Bloomberg just felt great." http://bit.ly/17h4Yy
