The ex-chief of staff for House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) helped Democrat Terry McAuliffe beat Republican Ken Cuccinelli in Virginias gubernatorial election race.
Boyd Marcus, the chief of staff for Cantor until 2003who later teamed with another GOP operative Ray Allen to found the firm Marcus Allen, which Cantor employed until earlier this yearjoined the McAuliffe campaign after Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, with whom Marcus campaigned, did not win the GOP nominee in Virginia.
