Gov. Mike Easley will attend an economic summit for Barack Obama.

MSNBC reports that Easley will be one of 16 Democratic governors meeting today in Chicago today to discuss the state of the economy, including possible running mates Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas, Ted Strickland of Ohio and Bill Richardson of New Mexico.

Earlier, a spokeswoman for the governor said that he might not be able to go because of ongoing budget negotiations.
