Latest poll (Oct 31) in VA Governor's race [View all]

The Washington Post: Northam 49, Gillespie 44.

However, RCP's average of the last 6 polls is Northam 46.3, Gillespie 42.7.

In my opinion, given what I call "the hidden Gillespie voters", Gillespie may actually gain 5% and the win in actual voting.

Turnout will be the key.
