Gov. Beverly Perdue is even helping out with the snow.
Jack Betts, on his blog, notes that he saw Perdue on television today visiting the DOT crews who were out spreading salt and plowing roads.
Betts notes that it's not unusual to see governors out and about when a hurricane hits, but it is odd to see one out with the snow plows.
Being a hands-on, on-site manager was a promise of Gov. Bev. Perdue's election campaign, and she and her Secretary of Transportation, Eugene Conti, were out and about talking to the DOT troops this morning. It seems as though we've seen more of the governor in the 10 days she's been in office than we saw of her predecessor over the last year, though that's surely not the case. Still, the new governor seems to relish public appearances in a way that Mike Easley never did.
