Todd Palin may be subpoenaed in Troopergate probe.

I wonder if Palin is going to invoke executive privilege for her hubby.

Thinkprogress:

The state Senate Judiciary Committee voted 3-2 today to give a state investigator the power to subpoena Todd Palin, the husband of Gov. Sarah Palin, “in an investigation of whether Palin abused her power in trying to get her former brother-in-law fired.” The prosecutor, Stephen Branchflower, said Todd Palin is “such a central figure.” He added that wants to interview Sarah Palin but did not ask for a subpoena for her.

TPM:

The Alaska Senate Judiciary Committee voted today to authorize the independent investigator Stephen Branchflower to issue subpoenas he requested to continue his investigation of Gov. Sarah Palin, including a subpoena for the testimony of the First Gentleman, Todd Palin.
