Randy Ruaro, deputy chief of staff to current governor Sean Parnell, says he expects it will take at least until Feb. 20 to release the emails from Oct. 1, 2008 to July 26, 2009. Ruaro told the attorney general that without an extension, responding to requests for the emails would "substantially impair" the other functions of the governor's office, as well as the ability to properly and thoroughly review the messages.
In June, the state released 24,199 pages of emails from Palin's first 21 months in office. This was in response to public records requests first made in September 2008, after Palin was chosen as the GOP vice presidential nominee.
