Gov. Mike Easley will endorse Beverly Perdue tomorrow.
Easley's office sent an email to supporters today inviting them to attend an 11 a.m. event at the N.C. Democratic Party's Raleigh headquarters to congratulate Perdue on her Democratic gubernatorial primary win.
The release notes that North Carolina has elected just two Republican governors in the past century and touts Perdue's executive experience as lieutenant governor.
"We have witnessed a vibrant primary between two strong, ambitious candidates with proven track records of service to the state," said party chairman Jerry Meek in a statement. "After a hard-fought primary, Lt. Gov. Beverly Perdue is strong, and Democrats are coming together to offer her steadfast, enthusiastic support."
Not to be outdone, Republican gubernatorial nominee Pat McCrory will hold a press conference at the state Capitol a few blocks east at noon.

Re: Easley to endorse Perdue
VOTING CIVIL RIGHTS were ABUSED across NC yesterday as UNaffiliated voters were DENIED the right to vote for partisan races - only NONpartisan races!
My 80 year old mom is the example here! We will be challenging the SBOE for responsiblity! OUTRAGEOUS IGNORANCE by poll workers!!!
WHOM are the people responsible for this? Heads NEED TO ROLL!!!
Our voting civil rights in this state are totally OPPRESSED!
