Crisscrossing the U.S. during his unsuccessful presidential bid appears to have left Rick Perry little time for Texas, with the governor logging only about 24 hours of official time handling state matters during his nearly six-month campaign, according to an Associated Press analysis of his office schedule.
Perry spent 160 days running for president between Aug. 13 and Jan. 19. His official schedule — obtained under open records requests — showed that he had no state events or activities on 128 of those days. On the other 32 days, he spent roughly 27 hours and 30 minutes officially tending to Texas matters.
