TRENTON, N.J. - The "Shared Values" section on GOP candidate Chris Christie's campaign Web site has been removed.

The section contained anti-abortion and anti-gay marriage declarations from Christie, the Republican nominee for governor.

In the section, Christie explained that the sound of his unborn daughter's heartbeat 14 years ago made him an abortion foe.

Campaign spokesman Bill Stepien said Thursday the section was taken down for technical reasons.

He said the campaign is planning to relaunch the Web site in coming days and was taking down things added to the original site.
