From Times-Dispatch:
State Sen. Ken Cuccinelli scored a firstballot victory yesterday for the Republican attorney general nomination, completing a conservative ticket anchored by Bob McDonnell for governor and Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling.
Cuccinelli, 40, and Bolling, 51, won by such wide margins at the state Republican convention in Richmond that they were declared victors by acclamation.
McDonnell, 54, was unopposed for the gubernatorial nomination. In his acceptance speech, McDonnell drew some of his loudest applause when he said he will be a staunch defender of “innocent human life,” as well as the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
