Lt. Gov. Beverly Perdue is making changes to her political staff.
Justin Guillory of Democratic firm Public Policy Polling will be joining the gubernatorial campaign's communications and research staff.
He announced on his (now former) blog that he would "try to stay connected" with the blogging community and the polling firm. N.C. Sierra Club employee Tom Jensen is taking over his old job.
Meantime, Perdue's finance director, Peter Reichard, will be scaling back his duties to deal with his daughter's illness, said spokesman David Kochman.
"We're hoping to still have him as active as he can be," Kochman said.
In addition, Perdue pledged to make unspecified staff changes in response to a recent article about omissions from her campaign finance reports.

Re: Changes at Perdue HQ
These changes may enable the Perdue campaign to more effectively deal with the issues of both the natural environment of North Carolin and opportunities for higher education for the people of the state.
This could even lead to a new campaign staff slogan:
Hickory, Guillory and Doc.
