Published January 27, 1996 at 10:00 PM MST

Adam Hochberg reports on the candidacy of former stock car racer Richard Petty. Petty is running on the Republican ticket for Secretary of State for North Carolina. Republicans are hopeful that a Petty victory could mean that North Carolina will become a more Republican state. Democrats would like to see the position of State Secretary abolished before election time.
