Chris Christie has arguably had the strangest trajectory of any announced candidate in the presidential race. It was widely assumed he would be the front-runner for the Republican nomination, especially after his impressive re-election in New Jersey. Now he is running behind Donald Trump.
Christie’s fall in New Hampshire has been especially steep. As late as March, he was polling in the double digits. In November 2014, there was a poll showing him tied with Jeb Bush for the lead at 16 percent. The most recent poll in the state has him at 5 percent, below his RealClearPolitics polling average of 5.6 percent.
