Virginia is getting attention from both major parties during the final days of the presidential campaign. Republican Donald Trump urged a crowd in Leesburg Sunday night to show up at the polls Tuesday and bring their friends. Trump’s ticket-mate, Indiana Governor Mike Pence, spoke in Fairfax on Saturday.

Virginia Senator Tim Kaine did his final Sunday talk show before the election. Kaine told the CBS program Face the Nation that his ticket-mate Hillary Clinton did not violate an ethics agreement with the State Department in 2011. That’s when Qatar gave the Clinton Foundation $1 million while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State. Kaine will hold two Virginia rallies Monday evening. They will be at George Mason University in Fairfax, and in the Richmond area.
