Vice President Joe Biden will campaign Monday in Annandale for Virginia's Democratic gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe, according to a news release from the McAuliffe campaign.
Biden will join McAuliffe volunteers and supporters at a rally starting at 9 a.m., but the location details for the rally were not available as of Tuesday morning. Biden's visit will come a day after President Barack Obama's visit to Northern Virginia on Sunday to campaign for McAuliffe.
Former President Bill Clinton campaigned across Virginia this week for McAuliffe, including a stop in Herndon Monday.
McAuliffe faces Republican nominee Ken Cuccinelli, Virginia's attorney general, and Libertarian Robert Sarvis in the election.
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, a Republican from Kentucky, campaigned with Cuccinelli at a packed event Monday in Fairfax. Cuccinelli will campaign with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal Tuesday at 4 p.m. in Bristow.
One of the most recent polls on the race, out late Monday, shows McAuliffe ahead, with 51 percent to Cuccinelli's 39 percent. The new poll, by The Washington Post/Abt-SRBI, showed Sarvis at 8 percent.
