Sarah Palin will be appearing at a major political event this spring, headlining the annual meeting of National Rifle Association this May.
CNN points out that the event’s location in Charlotte, North Carolina, is in a media market that includes parts of South Carolina, a key early primary state.
“Governor Palin is one of the most requested speakers in America today,” said NRA executive director Wayne LaPierre, in a statement to CNN. “She’s an outdoorsman, hunter and a steadfast supporter of our Second Amendment freedom. We are pleased to have a fellow NRA member speak at our 139th annual meeting in Charlotte this May.”
