Richardson selects chief strategist

Last week, Gov. Bill Richardson announced his former Chief of Staff Dave Contarino would begin working as the chairman of his re-election campaign.

Today, Richardson announced that AFTER the re-election campaign Contrarino would continue working on political matters as chief strategist — hopefully a presidential run.

“Dave will assume the chairmanship of my re-election campaign, working on all my political activities, including my re-election,” Richardson said.
