In a pair of fundraisers yesterday, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich raised $250,000 and $100,000, respectively, for Virginia gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell.
The pair are the latest stars of the GOP to raise cash for McDonnell, who is running against Democrat Creigh Deeds in this year’s race. Last week, an event with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney added $100,000 to McDonnell’s campaign chest.
And it looks like he’s gonna need it: Some of the latest polls have shown Deeds tightening the gap, catching up to within four points or so of McDonnell.
