Gov. Gets Involved In Races.(Journal North)

Richardson Denies Making Endorsements in Primary
Gov. Bill Richardson is going to bat for a handful of fellow Democrats in contested primary races this year, but other candidates are questioning the appropriateness of his actions.
Richardson has provided a statement -- a three-sentence quote -- in support of Ben R. Lujan of Santa Fe, a former worker in Richardson's congressional office and the son of House Speaker Ben Lujan. The younger Lujan is running for a seat on the Public Regulation Commission.
The statement, displayed on at least one of Lujan's voter hand-outs, says in part: "Ben R. Lujan will be an outstanding member of the PRC." Richardson's signature and title are displayed under the quote.
