Here is what I am told is on the front page of the Virginian-Pilot with a nice picture of the candidate:
Robert Sarvis wants Virginia voters to know they’ve got another option.
Trouble is, he doesn’t have a very big megaphone.
***
It comes down to dollars, or lack of them: Cuccinelli and McAuliffe together have raised more than $20 million in campaign cash; Sarvis, less than $40,000, according to their most recent financial filings.
Sarvis is not a frivolous candidate, however. Despite being left out of the debates scheduled so far in the governor’s race, early polls show him pulling 5 to 10 percent of the vote.

The 36-year-old Fairfax County native has been a software engineer, mobile-app developer, math teacher and lawyer. He has mathematics degrees from Harvard University and the University of Cambridge in England, a law degree from New York University and a master’s degree in economics from George Mason University.
I sense this election could be Virginia’s most exciting in many years. I am glad people have choices. If people decide they want to help Robert Sarvis, they need to go here: www.robertsarvis.com
