Katherine Harris' former campaign manager has been interviewed by federal investigators as part of an inquiry into her relationship with a convicted defense contractor, a newspaper reported Saturday.
Jim Dornan spoke to FBI and Defense Department investigators in Washington for about 90 minutes Thursday, the St. Petersburg Times reported.
Dornan, who left Harris' Senate campaign in November, declined to comment to the paper, and messages left Saturday for Dornan by The Associated Press were not immediately returned. The Department of Justice has said previously it does not comment on pending investigations.
Harris has been in the spotlight for her dealings with Mitchell Wade, a defense contractor who pleaded guilty to bribing a California congressman and admitted funneling $32,000 in illegal donations to Harris. She later said she gave the money to charity. Dornan was not Harris' campaign manager when she accepted the donations.
