Associated Press reports, “Republican Gov. Chris Christie was told during the George Washington Bridge lane closures that a Democratic mayor expressed concern that the resulting traffic jams in his city were political retribution, a former aide to the governor testified Monday [October 24]. Bridget Anne Kelly testified in her criminal trial that she told Christie about Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich’s concerns[,] and Christie told her it was a Port Authority of New York and New Jersey project and to ‘let Wildstein handle it,’ referring to David Wildstein.”
