Beverly Perdue will announce this fall.
Yesterday, we at Dome noted that the lieutenant governor is the last of the long-expected candidates to officially say that she's running for governor.
We tracked down a member of her non-campaign, finance director Peter Reichard. In an e-mail to Dome, he had this to say:
"The support and encouragement Lt. Governor Perdue has received from throughout the state has been overwhelming, and she plans to make a formal announcement about the governor's race in the Fall."
Perdue is now, officially, a pre-candidate.
