Virginia’s gubernatorial candidates cast their ballots this morning.
Republican Bob McDonnell voted at River’s Edge Elementary School in the Glen Allen area of Henrico County. McDonnell arrived just before 8:40 a.m., accompanied by his wife, four of his five children and a security detail.
McDonnell’s twin sons, Sean and Bobby, both seniors at nearby Deep Run High School, cast their first ballots.
McDonnell, who holds a solid lead in the polls over Democrat Creigh Deeds, said, “It feels good but we can’t take anything for granted.“
Deeds voted at 6:25 a.m. at the Millboro Ruritan Club near his home in rural Bath County in western Virginia.
He was accompanied by his wife, Pam, and voting-age children Amanda, Rebecca and Gus, the Deeds campaign said. Afterwards he had a biscuit breakfast with his family and supporters.
