Virginia gubernatorial candidate Creigh Deeds (D) just announced President Obama will campaign with him.
It’s no surprise Obama would cross the Potomac for Deeds on the eve of such a critical election. The rally will be Tuesday, Oct. 27, one week before the election.
The White House has said Obama strongly supports Deeds and will do all he can to help him defeat Republican candidate Bob McDonnell. Obama activated his grassroots supporters from his Organizing for America campaign list earlier this week, asking them to volunteer this weekend.
Obama was last in Virginia for Deeds Aug. 7.
Deeds is behind in the polls and some Democrats are worried.
