I’m always on the lookout for state or local
1. elected officials (currently in office)
2. government staffers
who are actively blogging. Public servant bloggers, in other words.
Campaign blogs are popular but there doesn’t seem to be many blogs by those in office or those employed in state or local government.
Here in Minnesota, I have 4 blogger clients who fit this description: 1 state house member, 2 city police chiefs, 1 city manager. I’d like to find others.
I asked a popular blogger and writer in North Carolina, Ed Cone. He wrote:
Jeff Thigpen, a candidate for Register of Deeds here in Guilford County is blogging his campaign; he is a sitting county commissioner. Sally Greene, a town councilwoman from Chapel Hill, has a weblog.
I Googled the phrase “public servant blogger” and found one more: Ron Perry, Clerk of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia.
