From HamptonRoads.com:
A new poll shows Republican Bob McDonnell continues to have a strong lead over Democrat Creigh Deeds but also indicates that a large bloc of undecided voters, including many women, blacks and Democrats, have yet to make up their minds as the Nov. 3 election draws near.
McDonnell, a former attorney general, was ahead by a double-digit margin of 45 percent to Deeds’ 31 percent. However, one in five – 22 percent – say they’re undecided.
The statewide survey, conducted by the Judy Ford Wason Center for Public Policy at Christopher Newport University, also found that McDonnell’s 1989 graduate school thesis, which criticized working mothers and homosexuals, did not affect most people’s view of him.
