Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission, which officially triggers a 2024 Republican presidential campaign, his second White House run

New Jersey’s former Republican governor Chris Christie has officially filed to run for president, according to the Federal Election Commission, setting himself up to face off against Donald Trump and a host of other candidates for the party’s nomination to challenge Joe Biden in the general election next year.

Christie enters an increasingly crowded Republican primary — he's the ninth candidate, so far. Former Vice President Mike Pence and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum are each planning to announce the launch of their respective campaigns Wednesday.

Christie's bid could inject a dose of anti-Trump criticism into a Republican primary field that has largely been reluctant to cross its leading candidate.

More than seven years after he ended his first campaign for president and swiftly endorsed Trump, Christie returns as a long-shot candidate in a growing Republican field.
