Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie isn’t fond of those who suggest he and fellow GOP White House hopeful Nikki Haley should team up to combat front-runner Donald Trump.
“This idea of people just doing math and adding up numbers, that’s not the way voters vote,” the former New Jersey governor said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “Let’s let the campaign move forward. This is the smallest Republican field at this stage in this century that did not include an incumbent.”
Mr. Christie is polling third in the early primary state of New Hampshire, with just over 11% support among his average ranking of recent surveys, trailing Ms. Haley at nearly 19% and Mr. Trump at almost 46%.
As the field narrows, Mr. Christie said he intends to remain a contender through the Republican National Convention next year, and he and Ms. Haley are “showing great momentum” in New Hampshire.
“Everyone else who’s still hanging around the fringe of the race is not a serious contender,” he said.
