As the Virginia Democratic primary for governor nears, another poll is showing a tight race. State Sen. Creigh Deeds leads at 29 percent, with former Democratic Party chairman Terry McAuliffe at 26 percent and former state legislator Brian Moran at 23 percent with 22 percent still undecided, according to a Suffolk University poll conducted June 1-3. The margin of error is 4.4 percent.

A SurveyUSA poll released yesterday and conducted May 31 - June 2 had McAuliffe at 35 percent, Deeds at 29 percent and Moran at 26 percent with the margin of error being 4.4 points.

"What makes this race even tougher to call is that when undecided voters statewide were prodded to choose one of the three candidates, many were breaking to McAuliffe and, to a lesser extent, Moran," said Suffolk's David Paleologos. "With the remaining undecided at 22 percent, the Deeds lead could be fluid, and the final tally could hinge on last-minute campaign ads, momentum, the weather, and get-out-the-vote efforts from all the candidates."
