Republican Bob McDonnell and Democrat R. Creigh Deeds barnstormed church services Sunday morning before rousing partisan crowds in their last blitz before Tuesday's governor's election.
Both began their day in Hampton Roads.
Bolstered by a new poll showing a 12-percentatge point lead over Deeds, McDonnell addressed a noisy crowd in Chesapeake excited at the prospect of winning their first major statewide race in nine years.
He planned stops later in western Virginia, the Shenandoah Valley and Loudoun County.
Deeds planned to spend most of his day in Hampton Roads, urging activists to turn out large numbers of voters who gave President Barack Obama a compelling Virginia victory a year ago.
