McDonnell, Deeds make closing arguments in gov bid

Posted:

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- After an expensive and rancorous campaign for governor, Republican Bob McDonnell and Democrat Creigh Deeds make their closing arguments Monday in stops statewide.

Jetting from city to city, McDonnell planned seven stops in the final day of campaigning before the election and Deeds plans to make four.

Polls over the final week show Deeds trailing McDonnell by a minimum of 11 points and as many as 18, a margin that will hinge on Tuesday's turnout.

Deeds appealed to Democrats in Charlottesville, Roanoke, Richmond and Alexandria to turn out in strength before a final appearance in his hometown, rural Millboro.

McDonnell is in Prince William, Roanoke, Charlottesville, Abingdon, Alexandria, Richmond and wraps up in Virginia Beach.
