One-term incumbent Democrat Mark Warner was elected with 65% of the vote in 2008. He will be 58 years old in 2014.
State Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli was considering challenging Warner,
but decided to run for Governor of Virginia instead.
Polling by Public Policy Polling shows Warner beating current Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, who will be term-limited in 2013, 51% to 40%.

I believe we should continue working to expand equal rights and opportunities for all Americans.”...
