Richardson taps major donors for transition staff roles
Gov elect Bill Richardson names 50 transition and search committee members many of whom contributed to his campaign. Notable donors include Cuauhtemoc Figueroa of AFSCME Council 18, Gerald Peters of a Santa Fe gallery, and Sandia Pueblo leaders. Critics say the move blurs campaign finance lines as supporters join the transition effort.
