Garrett Perdue, lobbyist and son of Gov. Beverly Perdue, won't say why he was at the legislature two weeks ago.
The younger Perdue was hired as a lobbyist for Womble, Carlyle, Sandridge & Rice, the state's largest law firm, in February, one month after his mother was sworn in as governor. He previously worked there as an associate.
A Womble Carlyle spokesman at the time emphasized that Garrett Perdue would not deal with state government.
"He won't be doing any lobbying in Raleigh," Womble Carlyle spokesman Russell Thomas said then.
So why was he spotted at the legislature? Perdue did not return emails or voicemails left on his office and cell phones, all asking about his visit.
Thomas declined to comment Thursday.




Re: Mystery (Garrett) Perdue visit
Given that Womble Carlyle also employs dozens of creepy democrackkks, including the vile Jim Hunt, there is NO telling what his legislative mission would have been but you can bet if its a secret, it involves some kind of corruption...
