If Christie did orchestrate this fiasco, think about the stupidity & arrogance, he knew he was going to win & yet that wasn't good enough...
Just like having Cory Booker's special election even though it costs taxpayers millions, just to keep him from losing some democrats votes...
His intent, to rack up as large a percentage of votes as he could. The irony, even though he won by a large percentage, he didn't win by that many votes compared to 2009.
