By Kathy Gregg Governor Carcieri has notified legislative leaders that he plans to deliver his annual televised State of the State address at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 10, in the House chamber. The notification came in a letter today from the governor's chief of staff Brian Stern. "In keeping with tradition, I also respectfully request that you invite all members of the House of Representatives and Senate, and that you make the necessary arrangements for coverage of the address by Capitol Television,'' Stern wrote House Speaker William J. Murphy. Earlier this week, Carcieri asked lawmakers for an extension until the same day, Feb. 10, to deliver his budget proposal to them for the year that begins July 1. Under state law, it is due the third Thursday in January each year, a deadline which came and went yesterday.
