The oil spill occurred right before she was elected. Does anyone know if there was anything left over for her to deal with, and if so, how did she do it?

1. Right before she was elected to what? Homecoming queen? PTA president?
The Exxon Valdez spill was in 1989.

6. This one...
-- BP Exploration Alaska, Inc. has begun an orderly and phased shutdown of the Prudhoe Bay oil field following the discovery of unexpectedly severe corrosion and a small spill from a Prudhoe Bay oil transit line. Shutting down the field will take days to complete. Over time, these actions will reduce Alaska North Slope oil production by an estimated 400,000 barrels per day.

9. unable to find specifics-however THIS about Todd
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Palin


For eighteen years, he worked for BP in the North Slope oil fields of Alaska. In 2007, in order to avoid a conflict of interest relating to his wife's position as governor, he took a leave<10> from his job as production supervisor when his employer became involved in natural gas pipeline negotiations with his wife's administration.<3> Seven months later, because the family needed more income, Todd returned to BP. In order to avoid potential conflict of interest, this time he accepted a non-management position as a production operator.<1><10> He resigned from his job on September 18, 2009, with the stated reason of spending more time with his family.<11>
