McAuliffe embraces Biden in bid for second term as Virginia governor
Inside the Champion Brewing Company in Charlottesville, Virginia, Terry McAuliffe, the former Virginia governor who's running for his old job, was talking to owner Hunter Smith last week when a staffer handed him a mask for "continuity" with everyone else.
"The president says don't wear masks inside," McAuliffe parried before putting on the mask. "I don't like to argue with Joe Biden."
As he tries to reclaim the governor's seat, too, McAuliffe, a longtime Democrat, is also sticking close to the president's campaign approach, hoping to replicate his 2020 success when Mr. Biden won Virginia by double digits in both the primary and general elections.
How McAuliffe fares in the June 8 primary, among a slate of progressive and diverse candidates, could give the party a window into the appeal of moderate candidates ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.
