Has there been a more quiet governor in the Uited States than Brian Sandoval? We could go weeks without seeing his name in the newspaper. However, he did pop up this week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
From the Las Vegas Sun: Gov. Brian Sandoval made his first visit to the floor of the International Consumer Electronics Show on Wednesday and, like many visitors to the annual gadget showcase, saw lots of stuff he'd like to have.
Sandoval and a small contingent from the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority spent about an hour at the show, touring the displays of Motorola, Panasonic and Samsung.
"This is probably the most famous show on the planet, and for us to host it is wonderful," Sandoval said. "I think it's important for the governor of Nevada to be here."
Sandoval, believed to be the first sitting governor ever to tour CES, looked at microtelevisions from Motorola, lithium ion storage battery cells for electric cars at the Panasonic booth and smart televisions from Samsung that integrate TV programming with web surfing and social media interaction.

Hopefully, Sandoval spent some time trying to get some of the electronics companies to build a plant or two in Nevada.
I guess Sandoval will now be gone for a few weeks. Maybe he has the same travel planner as President Obama?
