Josh:

Please consider this a records request pursuant to GS 132. I would like the same material that you
provide to the Democratic Party per their request today on gubernatorial travel. I would be pleased to
receive in the same format and at the same time you produce their request.

Please let me know if there will be a cost associated with the production of those records.

Thanks very much.

So to be clear, the governor's office believes the interviews are part of the job and therefore
travel is funded by the office?

 Hi Graham and Josh--

The N.C. Democratic Party held a news conference this morning for their public records
request about the governor's travel to appear on Meet The Press and Fox News Sunday in
recent weeks. Can you let me know if these trips were funded by the governor's office,
by the governor's campaign or by the TV networks?

Thanks!
Colin
