The governor joked that more people showed up for the Irvington event than voted for him in 2009, when only 5 percent - 459 votes - supported him.
Christie was asked most about his proposals to keep violent offenders awaiting trial behind bars without bail and to get nonviolent drug offenders into treatment facilities.
