DescriptionThe June 11 primary election is less than three months away but one thing is already clear: Terry McAuliffe is the Virginia Democratic Party's gubernatorial nominee.

McAuliffe, a Northern Virginia businessman and political fundraiser, is unopposed for the nomination and has been certified by the party after he filed 35,000-plus petition signatures to make the ballot, more than three times what's required.

"We believe that this is the most signatures any candidate has collected for Governor in Virginia history," said party chairwoman Charniele Herring, a state delegate from Alexandria. "The momentum from volunteers and outpouring of support across the Commonwealth is a true sign of the energy behind Terry McAuliffe's campaign."
