I expect that Christie will easily be reelected. I would have expected this pre-Sandy, but I believe his handling of the disaster was about as good as you can ask from any Governor and I'm sure that convinced a lot of the more moderate Democrats in the state to vote for him. I hope Buono can defeat him, but I won't get too optimistic.
