RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Virginians are heading to the polls to elect a new governor.
Also on Tuesday's ballot are races for lieutenant governor, attorney general and the House of Delegates. Polls close at 7 p.m.
Republican Bob McDonnell and Democrat Creigh Deeds are competing to succeed Gov. Tim Kaine, who is ineligible for re-election under the Virginia Constitution. The race is being watched nationally because it's one of only two gubernatorial elections this year.
Democrat Jody Wagner is challenging Republican Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, who is seeking a second term. Two Fairfax County legislators, Republican Ken Cuccinelli and Democrat Steve Shannon, are running for attorney general.
Sixty-nine of Virginia's 100 House seats are contested.
