we want to check in with chief
national correspondent, john
king, in virginia.
looks like we could be seeing a
major sea change if terry
mcauliffe wins.
let's start with virginia before
moving to new jersey.
>> fascinating race in the sense
of two candidates, both parties,
perhaps not the premier players
they would like, but remember,
you had a democratic governor of
virginia, then another.
right now, a republican
governor.
president obama carried this
state twice.
democrats want a democratic
victory tonight to try to make
the case.
virginia is shifting from a
one-time red state, becoming a
blue state.
fascinating issues at play in
this race.
the very same issues that will
be in play next year in the
midterm elections and likely in
the 2016 presidential campaign
as well.
the government shutdown, the
tactics of the tea party and the
president's health care plan.
the it's one thing to watch
tonight in virginia.
do a majority of the voters
oppose obama care?
do they have disagreements...
