McAuliffe Now Favored in Virginia

Stu Rothenberg says that Terry McAuliffe (D) “has established himself as a narrow but clear front-runner” over Ken Cuccinelli (R) in the race for Virginia governor.

“Given McAuliffe’s advantage and Democrats’ success in defining Cuccinelli as unacceptable, the Democrat now deserves to be regarded as the favorite in the contest. Because of that, we are moving this race from a Tossup to Lean Democrat.”
