(Republican state senator Diane) Allen told TPM Christie chose between herself and Guadagno.

"They did a great job of pulling a lot of info on all of us. I mean they had six notebooks on each of us. Ultimately, it came down to Kim and me, and he chose Kim," said Allen. "I think he made a great choice."

As lieutenant governor, Allen said Christie tasked Guadagno with "the job of cutting red tape and trying to make us more business friendly," Allen praised Guadagno's performance in this area describing her as a hands-on politician who "gives out her cell phone number."

"I know for a fact that when businesses call her, she takes their call. She answers her own cell phone and somebody will ask for something and she'll get it done for them," Allen said. "She'll cut through red tape in days that would normally have taken weeks, or months, or even years. So, she is one of those people who gets things done and i think that's spectacular."
