Ex-Christie Aide Lands at GOP Firm

Bill Stepien, who ran both of Gov. Chris Christie’s (R) campaigns and is a central figure in the George Washington Bridge scandal, “quietly accepted a job at a top Republican consulting firm late last month,” Politico reports.

The firm worked on Christie’s re-election campaign in 2013.

“It’s a soft landing for Stepien, who was rising quickly in GOP politics and had drawn comparisons to Karl Rove before becoming embroiled in the Bridgegate scandal.”
