Governor Chris Christie said his pick to be the first openly gay justice on the New Jersey Supreme Court won’t rule on issues involving same-sex marriage.

Christie, a first-term Republican, also said critics, including Assemblyman Reed Gusciora, a gay Democrat who represents Trenton, are “numbnuts” for comparing him to segregationists because of comments he made about civil rights.
