Her post received 4,838 likes as of Thursday morning and almost 600 comments. She has 62,000 Facebook fans.
The governor's office reportedly explained that Haley was saying goodbye to her 11-year-old son, Nalin, on Wednesday morning, and found she was locked outside. Her 15-year-old daughter Rena unlocked the door and let the robed governor back into the mansion.
South Carolina Democrats pounced on Haley who is up for reelection in 2014, saying in a press release, "File this under fake transparency because it certainly is telling about Nikki Haley's priorities when it comes to sharing information with the people of South Carolina."
