TRENTON Gov. Chris Christie is spending Abraham Lincoln's birthday in the Land of Lincoln as he works to build support for a potential 2016 run.
The Republican will attend two round table meetings Thursday afternoon in Chicago and then deliver the keynote address at the 8th Annual Northwest Suburban Republican Lincoln Day Dinner in Rolling Meadows, Illinois.
The trip comes shortly after Christie's backers launched a political action committee that allows him to raise money and pay for travel as he weighs a bid.
Ryan Higgins, the Republican committeeman for Schaumburg Township, who is helping to organize the dinner, said he expected between 850 and 900 people at the sold-out event exceeding a previous record of about 650 people who attended when Kentucky Senator Rand Paul headlined in 2013.
