No awkward hand-shake between Culver & Branstad

Governor Chet Culver’s staff advises reporters of the following:

Note to media: The Governor and Governor-elect do not wish to provide undue distraction from the duties assigned to each as part of an orderly transition. Therefore, Governor-elect Branstad will not be in attendance at the Governor’s Condition of the State address Tuesday, and Governor Culver will not participate in inaugural activities on Friday. 

So, it appears that October 22, 2010 hand-shake at the end of the last debate between Branstad and Culver was the final public meeting of the two.
