A Guide to The Four NJ Mayors Who Say Chris Christie Was One Big Bully

Mark Sokolich, Fort Lee

"I've asked the Port for an explanation, but they haven't responded," Sokolich told a local columnist in a piece published on Sept. 13. "I thought we had a good relationship. Now I'm beginning to wonder if there's something I did wrong. Am I being sent some sort of message?"

Steve Fulop, Jersey City
(snip)
In a Jan. 12 Wall Street Journal story, Fulop tried to take a more prominent role in the scandal. He told the newspaper that he had been frozen out of meeting with state officials since his decision last year not to endorse Christie's re-election.

Chris Bollwage, Elizabeth

Elizabeth Mayor Chris Bollwage added to Christie's issues on Thursday, when he spoke out about an incident he said took place in 2010, shortly after Christie first become governor. Bollwage told The Newark Star-Ledger newspaper that Christie closed a Motor Vehicle Commission office in Elizabeth in 2010 after Bollwage, state Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D), and Assemblyman Joe Cryan (D) opposed some of the new governor's legislative efforts.

Dawn Zimmer, Hoboken

“As they pursue this investigation, I will provide any requested information and testify under oath about the facts of what happened when the lieutenant governor came to Hoboken and told me that Sandy aid would be contingent on moving forward with a private development project,” Zimmer said in a statement, according to the Star-Ledger.
