Indianapolis 500 winners Bobby Unser, 73, and Al Unser Sr., 68, began a campaign tour for presidential candidate Bill Richardson in New Hampshire yesterday with a stop at Nashua Harley-Davidson.

The Richardson 500 Tour drew about 20 people to the motorcycle shop to see the Unser brothers, longtime New Mexico residents, who spoke on the merits of the New Mexico governor. Bobby

Unser said he has been a friend of Richardson for 15 years. "I have never been involved with politics before, but he is a friend of mine and I wanted to help him," he said. "He has straightened our whole state out."

The tour will continue today.
