Martha MacCallum and Bret Baier will co-anchor a one-hour election special, "Democracy 2021: Virginia Showdown."
In recent days, McAuliffe has enlisted Biden, former President Barack Obama, Vice President Kamala Harris and a slew of other liberal household names in hopes he can get the extra boost needed to win the closely watched race, putting a national spotlight on the race in the process.
A Virginia Republican hasn't won a statewide race in 12 years but polls have shown McAuliffe, who was previously elected governor in 2013, tied with GOP nominee Glenn Youngkin. Biden’s own popularity is on the decline in the state after carrying Virginia comfortably in 2020.
FOX News Media’s other platforms are all-in on election coverage, too.
