Republican running for Va. governor under fire as more work for Democrats emerges

One of the frontrunners for the Republican nomination for Virginia governor is facing last-minute attacks as documents have surfaced indicating he worked for Democrats on multiple occasions.

Digital marketing pioneer Pete Snyder, a top-tier candidate going into a GOP primary convention on Saturday, earned more than $7,200 from the Democratic National Committee in 2000 for “media” and “media consulting” work, records indicate. Snyder previously faced scrutiny because his company, New Media Strategies, took $140,000 from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in 2005 and 2006.
