Pete stood out as the conservative leader with the leadership and the innovative ideas needed to open our schools, save small businesses, and protect Virginians' rights
Arlington, VA - Following today's Arlington Republican Women's Club and Monticello Council of Republican Women Forum, Pete Snyder for Governor Campaign Manager Jim Hilk released the following statement on Pete's forum victory:
"Pete proved himself to be the conservative outsider that Virginia needs to restore the rights of Virginians, revitalize small business, and open our schools. Pete is offering fresh, innovative solutions to make Virginia the leader it once was.
"Pete is the only proven conservative in this race that can get Virginia leading again, and today's forum confirmed that."
Pete Snyder announced his candidacy for Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia in January 2021. Pete is a small business champion and conservative outsider committed to exposing the systemic incompetence in Richmond and disrupting the status quo. Pete is a small business owner, an innovator, and a problem solver. A true pioneer, Pete started his first company, New Media Strategies, the first social media marketing company in the country, when he was 26 years old. Over the years, as an angel capital investor and CEO of Disruptor Capital, Pete has helped found and grow many small businesses in Virginia and across the country.
When those in charge in Richmond failed to lead us during this pandemic, Pete and his wife Burson stepped up. Together and with the help of friends and neighbors the Snyders created the Virginia 30 Day Fund, a zero-overhead, non-profit organization that has helped save more than 1,000 small businesses across Virginia and more than 2,500 small businesses across America. Their 30 Day Fund efforts have raised more than $40 million to date, and every single dime of that goes to help keep hard working heroes afloat and their small business dreams alive. This is the very kind of new leadership, new energy and innovative thinking Pete will bring to Richmond to restore common sense and get Virginia leading again.
Pete, who has been a World Championship level certified BBQ judge (which the Washington Post's Politifact rated as "100% True"), is the proud owner of Pete's Pig Rig, the most infamous BBQ smoker in the Commonwealth. Pete, his wife Burson, his six-year-old daughter Bee, and their puppies Willie and Waylon live in Charlottesville, Virginia.
