>Christie: if property taxes rise, ‘I’ll tell you where to go’
Presenting himself as the people’s champion against an entrenched culture of Trenton government, Gov. Chris Christie asked residents to lean on their elected officials to pass a referendum question that would cap government spending at 2.5% and require a ballot question for spending outside the cap. “The state didn’t elect me to run a charm school and they didn’t elect someone to nuance this thing to good health,” said Christie, reflecting on a 70% uptick in property taxes statewide over the past decade.
