NJ attorney general named to fill US Senate seat
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) -- New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie named a longtime colleague, state Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa, to temporarily fill the U.S. Senate seat Thursday that opened up this week after Frank Lautenberg's death.
Chiesea, who worked with Christie in the U.S. attorney's office before becoming the top lawyer for the state government, won't seek the office in an October election to fill the seat, Christie said.
Chiesa, a Republican, was Christie's chief counsel until he was nominated in December 2011 to be attorney general.

A lot of people aren't happy to be spending what is it 25million or so for a special election. Why didn't Christie just appoint Chiesa to finish the term of Lautenberg? I used to like Christie but every since he helped Obama win the election, I haven't liked him.

Christie didn't do it on purpose.

Well, he hugged Obama and praised him and made him look good right before elections. He should have know better. It made his and the President's numbers go way up.

It was the perfect photographic opportunity. Especially with the "flash no substance" society that we live in.
