Wake County School Board member Debra Goldman will run for State Auditor.
Goldman made the announcement official on YouTube on Wednesday.
Goldman, who has served as the vice-chair of the Wake County Public School System, has been commonly called a “watchdog” or “maverick.” She says she is running for State Auditor because she feels leadership in our government is lacking.
“In their roles as Governor and State Auditor, I regret to say that Bev Perdue and Beth Wood have failed North Carolina,” Goldman said in a written statement. “We have seen record levels of unemployment, thousands of jobs leave our state, and while we cannot credit them with creating many jobs, we can acknowledge that Bev and Beth have excelled in both creating and ignoring scandals."
Goldman said she is ready to bring leadership to the Office of State Auditors and is ready for the challenge.
