Candidates for a seat in the Virginia Senate spent the last weekend before Election Day campaigning.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D) attended a campaign event in Chesapeake on Sunday. He told News 3 about the issues he’s hearing from constituents.

“I think the issues people are raising the most are the economy, health care and choice,” Senator Kaine said.

Republican challenger Hung Kao spent the day campaigning in Northern Virginia. He said he would like to help military families if he wins.

“The cost of living is so high for some of these families right now. Some are on WIC or on food stamps and it’s so wrong,” Tsao said.

Both candidates talked about what they thought could help the country. For Kaine, he said he wants to help Americans feel less constrained by government.

“People don’t want the government to tie their hands or make the decisions for them. Women want to have the ability to exercise reproductive freedom,” Kaine said.

Cao said that the cost of living should come down and that the country should increase its national security.

“We can’t afford to put food on the table. We can’t afford to put gas in our cars, and meanwhile the border is run by tens of thousands of illegal aliens.”

While polls show Kaine as the favorite to win, both candidates are taking nothing for granted in a race that could decide which party controls the Senate.
