Christie's Last-Minute Push In New Hampshire Ahead Of Primary

MANCHESTER, N.H. (CBS) --  A last-minute push in New Hampshire tonight ahead of tomorrow's primary in Campaign 2016.

The candidates have been crisscrossing the granite state all day and into the night -- stumping for every last vote.

Coming off what many have called a strong Saturday night debate performance, with less than 24 hours until New Hampshire polls close, New Jersey Governor Christie worked to convince any remaining undecideds he was ready for the job.

For some it worked. "Preparedness, he has run an entire state. He has dealt with a disaster," New Hampshire resident Marilyn Mills said.

For others it didn't. "He's a little too far right for my views," Skip Morris said. "I'm a little more progressive."

His last town hall event Monday was held at Saint George Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Manchester, the state's largest city.

New Hampshire voters asked the governor about everything from the national debt to the September 11th terrorist attacks.

The presidential hopeful has spent 71 days in the Granite State, more than any other candidate.

And after finishing 10th in the Iowa caucuses, the stakes here are high.
