I-ofisi ye-rhuluneli ngokuhlwanje iyalikhanyela ibali le-Associated Press elinika ingxelo ephantse inyuke nge-2 yezigidi zeerandi ngurhulumente uChris Christie kwiindleko zomvuzo wolawulo ngaphezulu koGqr. UJon Corzine ongaphambi kwakhe.
Ibali le-AP libike ngempazamo ukuba umvuzo wolawulo lwaseCorzine wawuzizigidi ezisixhenxe zeedola, utshilo uNobhala weChristie Press u-Michael Drewniak. Ngapha koko, bekukho inani elikhulu labasebenzi elingafakwanga kumanani oLawulo lweCorzine. Ukongeza abo baqeshwa- babizwa ngokuba 'ngabashukumayo' kwimali mboleko kwiOfisi yeRhuluneli evela kwamanye amasebe- bezokuzisa imivuzo iyonke ngaphezulu kwe- $ 8.3 yezigidi kulawulo lweCorzine. Umahluko ugubungela ubuncinci ishumi elinababini laba basebenzi bokuhamba basetyenziswe ngexesha loLawulo lweCorzine, benomvuzo opheleleyo ongaphezulu kwe- $ 1.1 yezigidi phakathi kwabo.
Oko kubeka ulawulo lukaChristie - umvuzo opheleleyo weedola eziyi-8.9 yezigidi kubasebenzi abayi-117 - ngaphezulu kweCorzine ngama-600,000 eedola.
UDrewniak waphikisa ukuba uLawulo lukaChristie lubandakanya kwaye luchonga ngamagama bonke abasebenzi balo- kubandakanya abantu abali-15 ekuhambeni kwezinye iiarhente- xa lithumela imivuzo yolawulo kwiiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo kwiwebhusayithi yeOfisi yeRhuluneli, ekwalulwazi olufanayo olunikezwe Imithombo yeendaba yeAsbury Park ngaxeshanye.
Senze konke okusemandleni ukuze sibe selubala kwaye senze izinto ngokuphandle, kubandakanya nengxelo yomvuzo kunye nabasebenzi, utshilo uDrewniak. Ekukhawulezeni kwe-AP ukuphuma esangweni kuqala, yenze njalo ngebali elalichazwe ngesiqingatha, ligcwele iimpazamo zezinto ezishiyiweyo kunye nokushiyeka kwaye ngaphandle kwezilumkiso zolawulo ezazingalunganga. Siyathemba ukuba i-AP izakulirhoxisa ibali layo.
UDrewniak ukwachasile amanani kumabali e-AP axele ngokungafaniyo phakathi kwabasebenzi bolawulo abenza ngaphezulu kwekhulu-34 kulawulo lukaChristie, xa kuthelekiswa ne-17 kulawulo lwaseCorzine.
Ngapha koko, ubuncinci ubuncinci abasebenzi abathandathu abafumana ngaphezulu kwe- $ 100,000, utshilo uDreniak. Kwakhona, ibali lisilele ukubandakanya 'ukuhamba' kwabasebenzi okanye ukufuna ukuqinisekisa yonke imivuzo ka-2009 kulawulo lweCorzine. Kwakhona, xa kuthelekiswa amanani apheleleyo omvuzo phakathi kolawulo, ibali le-AP lisilele ukuqaphela ukuba iRhuluneli uChristie ifumana umvuzo we-175,000 yeedola, njengoko kuvunyelwe ngumthetho. Umanduleli wakhe wenqabile ukufumana umvuzo ngenxa yobutyebi bakhe obuzimeleyo.
Ibali nalo alithathi ndawo indawo entsha ye-Lieutenant Governor, engenalo uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali. IOfisi yeRhuluneli ibonelela ngabasebenzi kunye nezixhobo zokuxhasa iOfisi yeLieutenant Governor, ngokomthetho ongabandakanyi nabasebenzi.
Okokugqibela, iRhuluneli uCorzine wayengatshatanga ngexesha lakhe kwaye, ngenxa yoko, wayengenabasebenzi kwiNkosikazi yeNkulumbuso. Inenekazi lokuqala, uMary Pat Christie, unabasebenzi ababini kwiOfisi yeProtocol.
Umbhalo opheleleyo wengxelo kaDrewniak:
Ibali le-Associated Press emva kwexesha lanamhlanje lenze iingxelo ezingeyonyani kunye neengcinga eziphosakeleyo malunga neendleko zokubhatala iOfisi yeRhuluneli phantsi kweRhuluneli uChris Christie xa uyithelekisa nomrholo wolawulo lwangaphambili.
Ibali le-AP lithethe ubuxoki ukuba irhafu kaRhuluneli uChristie yayiphantse yalingana ne-2 yezigidi zeedola kunaleyo yolawulo lwangaphambili. Ukuhlawulwa kwabasebenzi kunye neengxelo zabasebenzi kuzo zombini iwebhusayithi yeRhuluneli yeOfisi kwaye zinikwe i-Asbury Park Press njengenxalenye yesicelo se-OPRA esibonisa umvuzo opheleleyo wabo bonke abasebenzi ukuba ube yi- $ 8.9 yezigidi kubasebenzi abali-117.
Ibali le-AP libike ngempazamo ukuba umvuzo wolawulo lweCorzine wawuyi- $ 7 yezigidi kuphela. Ngapha koko, bekukho inani elikhulu labasebenzi elingafakwanga kumanani oLawulo lweCorzine.

Umahluko ugubungela ubuncinci ishumi elinababini laba basebenzi bokuhamba basetyenziswe ngexesha loLawulo lweCorzine, benomvuzo opheleleyo ongaphezulu kwe- $ 1.1 yezigidi phakathi kwabo.
Ngokuchasene noko, uLawulo lukaChristie lubandakanyiwe kwaye lwachongwa ngamagama bonke abasebenzi balo- kubandakanya abantu abali-15 ekuhambeni kwezinye iarhente- xa lithumela imivuzo yolawulo kwiiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo kwiwebhusayithi yeOfisi yeRhuluneli, ekwalulwazi olufanayo olunikezwe iAsbury Iphepha lokushicilela ngaxeshanye.
Senze konke okusemandleni ukuba sibe selubala kwaye senze izinto ngokuphandle kuzo zonke izinto, kubandakanya nengxelo yomvuzo kunye nabasebenzi, utshilo uNobhala weendaba u-Michael Drewniak. Ekukhawulezeni kwe-AP ukuphuma esangweni kuqala, yenze njalo ngebali elalichazwe ngesiqingatha, ligcwele iimpazamo zezinto ezishiyiweyo kunye nokushiyeka kwaye ngaphandle kwezilumkiso zolawulo ezazingalunganga. Siyathemba ukuba i-AP izakulirhoxisa ibali layo.
Ibali le-AP likwabike ukuba uLawulo lweCorzine lwalunabantu abali-17 kuphela abafumana imivuzo eyi- $ 100,000 okanye nangaphezulu. Ngapha koko, bekukho ubuncinci abasebenzi abathandathu abafumana ngaphezulu kwe- $ 100,000. Kwakhona, ibali aliphumelelanga ukubandakanya abasebenzi bokuhamba okanye bafune ukuqinisekisa yonke imivuzo ka-2009 kuLawulo lweCorzine.
Kwakhona, xa kuthelekiswa amanani apheleleyo omvuzo phakathi kolawulo, ibali le-AP lisilele ukuqaphela ukuba iRhuluneli uChristie ifumana umvuzo we-175,000 yeedola, njengoko kuvunyelwe ngumthetho. Umanduleli wakhe wenqabile ukufumana umvuzo ngenxa yobutyebi bakhe obuzimeleyo.
Ibali nalo alithathi ndawo indawo entsha ye-Lieutenant Governor, engenalo uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali. IOfisi yeRhuluneli ibonelela ngabasebenzi kunye nezixhobo zokuxhasa iOfisi yeLieutenant Governor, ngokomthetho ongabandakanyi nabasebenzi.
