President Barack Obama called Gov-elect Bob McDonnell late this morning—reportedly a pleasant, 10 minute conversation.
“It was a nice,“ said McDonnell spokesman Tucker Martin. “The president told him, ‘The first thing you do, make sure you thank your wife’.“
They also discussed some areas of agreement, including support for educational initiatives like charter schools, something McDonnell frequently mentioned on the campaign trail.
While McDonnell spent the morning with his family at the Marriott after last night’s Election Party there, his transition staff has begun moving into their new space in a 9th Street office building.
Martin, whose BlackBerry was fried after the volume of e-mails he received last night, said about 10 people have set up camp so far in the new quarters. McDonnell has a post-election news conference scheduled for 2 p.m., when we could find out more about his transition team.
