The Republican Party of Virginia is offering a $1,000 reward for a photograph of the state's Democratic Attorney General Mark Herring in blackface

"Herring stated that he spoke with 'college friends' about his appearance in blackface and double checked if anyone had photo evidence of his indiscretions," the party posted on its website Tuesday."Herring claims to not know if there is a photo, but does anyone really believe him?" Virginia Republicans are also offering the reward for"verifiable contact information" for Herring's fraternity brothers during his time at the University of Virginia.

The attorney general's disclosure that he wore blackface came days after Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, admitted and apologized for appearing in a racist photo in his medical school yearbook, though he later denied appearing in the image. Herring initially did not call on Northam to resign after the racist photograph surfaced on February 1.
