NORFOLK, Virginia — Abigail Spanberger, the Democratic gubernatorial nominee in Virginia, is leaning on Democratic heavyweights and rising stars in her party in the final weeks of her battle to succeed the term-limited Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA).

On Saturday, Spanberger appeared at the Ted Constant Convocation Center with former President Barack Obama, perhaps the most popular Democrat alive, for a high-spirited and packed rally that energized voters ahead of Tuesday’s election.
