Just five points separate the Virginia gubernatorial picks in another poll showing Trump at 40% approval ratings and wild answers on jobs and the economy.

Messaging off, fundraising down… and Northam is nowhere to be seen. Are we seeing a replay of Creigh Deeds’s 2009 effort from the Virginia Democrats?

Nationwide, more than 50,000 die of this epidemic every year — that’s a 9/11 scale loss of human life every three weeks.
