Will 3rd Time Be A Charm? Christie Town Hall Set For Thursday

If at first they don't succeed, try, try again...

After twice canceling his Town Hall meeting in Middletown due to inclement weather, Governor Christie is giving it one more try on Thursday to get in the 110th town hall event of his administration. And lucky for me, I'm off and will be able to attend.

For those interested in attending, the town hall takes place at the Middletown VFW Post 2179 in Port Monmouth and doors will open at 10 a.m., with the event starting at 12:30 p.m. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis and open to the public.

According to weather reports Thursday will be a mostly sunny day with a high temperature of 47 degrees. If the weather forecast holds as planned I'd say its a safe bet that the governor get the town hall in as scheduled this time.


As I stated in my earlier posts announcing Christie's arrival in Middletown, this Town Hall will be the first Town Hall meeting since the Bridgegate lane closure scandal and accusations of using Hurricane Sandy aid money to extract political endorsements from Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer and others, engulfed his administration last month. And while we know what Governor Christie intends to talk about (Superstorm Sandy relief and recovery efforts) it's what he won't be talking about that will be on a lot of people's mind.
