Virginia Governor's Race 2013
The two candidates Terry McAuliffe and Ken Cuccinelli couldn't be on farther sides of the political spectrum. Terry McAliffe, is outspoken democrat, backed by President Obama and Biden. His opponent, Ken Cuccinelli is backed by the Tea Party, making it more difficult for him to gain the vote of the common republican. Acclaimed predictor Nate Silver,  thinks that the Terry McAulife will win saying that the Government Shutdown hit the Republicans hard making it very difficult for their candidates to get elected.
