Former presidential candidate the Rev. Al Sharpton will be in Raleigh this evening to talk the Alliance of North Carolina Black Elected Officials.
Gov. Beverly Perdue told the officials that she didn't want them to compare her speaking skills with those of Shartpon, Rob Christensen reports.
"I know you are going to compare me to Al Sharpton," Perdue said. "I'm not Al Sharpton. I want you to know that."
