There is a virtual tie in the Virginia gubernatorial race between former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) and Republican nominee Glenn Youngkin, with less than a month left before the polls close.
The latest Emerson College/Nexstar Media poll revealed with less than one month out from Election Day, McAuliffe has a one-point lead in the poll against Youngkin, 49 percent to 48 percent, respectively. One percent of voters plan to vote for someone else, along with two percent who are still undecided.
McAuliffe barely leads the women’s vote with 51 percent to Youngkin’s 45 percent. But, Youngkin leads the men’s vote 50 percent to 46 percent.
Additionally, the Cook Political Report changed its race rating from “leans D” to “toss up.” Last weekend, the Hampton Roads Black Caucus — which endorsed McAuliffe in his previous gubernatorial campaign — came out in support of Youngkin.
McAuliffe was caught on camera last night admitting that President Joe Biden’s “unpopularity” in Virginia is causing his gubernatorial campaign to face “headwinds” as the November 2 election draws nearer.
