same chris christie staffer who ordered traffic problems for the town of ft. lee. the extent to which chris christie staffers also served as an election machine, and the way the chris christie administration governed new jersey as an election machine, that has been one of the startling revelations of the past few weeks. we began to see some of this in the report issued last month by randy mastro, whose law if i were was hired by the governor's office to do an internal review of the governor. yesterday, that law firm released notes from 75 interviews they did for that internal report on the governor's office. those notes have more and in some ways, more unsettling detail that we didn't know before. for example, they interviewed a sandy regional director in the governor's office. this person served as a conduit between mayors and municipalities in the office of the governor, involving issues regarding to hurricane sandy, recovery from hurricane sandy. that staffer, in charge of that issue, recalled, according to these notes, that on issues related to hurricane s
