Dragged down by the growing unpopularity of President Joe Biden in blue Virginia, Democrat Terry McAuliffe’s lead over businessman Republican Glenn Youngkin has shrunk to just four points — the margin of error in a just released poll.

McAuliffe, trying to be just the third former Virginia governor to win another term, leads Youngkin 49%-45% in the poll from the Wason Center for Civic Leadership at Christopher Newport University. The margin of error is 4.2 percentage points.
