Dear xxxxx,

The energy and excitement from the campaign trail is growing each and every day! This morning in Northern Virginia our GOP ticket of Jerry Kilgore, Bill Bolling, and Bob McDonnell was joined by our U.S. Senators John Warner and George Allen, Congressmen Tom Davis and Frank Wolf and RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman to pump up the crowd.

You can feel the energy and excitement for yourself by watching our latest web video today. You'll see why everyone is so excited to work hard for our Republican ticket here in Virginia, and I hope you'll help us get-out-the-vote on Tuesday.

But there is still much work to be done. As Senator Allen points out, we're in our "two minute drill" of this campaign, and it's important we make the extra effort to score the touchdown. If you haven't done so already, please sign up to help in the final days of this campaign. Every voter that is called and every door that is knocked on between now and Election Day can make the difference in this tight election that will come down to the wire.

I'd also like to invite you to see a special video message from Senators John Warner and George Allen on our website. We're honored to have the support of these two great Senators and I hope you enjoy their video message.

Thanks to your hard work we're right where we need to be to win - while polls show this race is tight, I think you'll agree that the other side cannot match our energy, excitement and enthusiasm for our entire ticket. On to victory on Tuesday!

Sincerely,
Ken Hutcheson
Campaign Manager, Virginians for Jerry Kilgore

Candidates for governor seek to close the sale
By Keyonna Summers
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
November 6, 2005


Republican gubernatorial candidate Jerry W. Kilgore kicked off a daylong, cross-state campaign swing yesterday in Springfield, rallying hundreds of enthusiastic supporters and calling himself a "pro-gun owner, anti-tax, limited government, anti-illegal immigration, pro-public safety, pro-death penalty ... conservative."

Campaigning for the second day with U.S. Sen. George Allen, a former governor, at his side, Mr. Kilgore criticized Democratic opponent Timothy M. Kaine's support of in-state tuition for illegal aliens seeking citizenship.

"He said I was being insensitive when I said you shouldn't use taxpayer dollars to build fancy day-labor sites here in Northern Virginia," Mr. Kilgore told the crowd. "On the issue of illegal immigration, you can't trust Tim Kaine to be governor of Virginia."
