Democrat Terry McAuliffe has more than double the cash on hand of his opponent for the final week before Election Day, holding $1.6 million, compared with Republican Ken Cuccinellis $604,163.
McAuliffe raised $8.1 million from Oct. 1 to 23, compared with $2.9 million for Cuccinelli, according to the Virginia Public Access Project, a nonpartisan tracker of money in politics.
Libertarian nominee for governor Robert C. Sarvis has $58,583 on hand after raising $81,594 in the period.

I had heard that the big GOP donors were shying away from THE COOCH or just making nominal donations.
BTW- Sarvis could pull 3-5% of the vote, mostly from THE COOCH.
