Hampton Roads’ own Joel Rubin, former host of On the Record, will be hosting a series of interviews with the six statewide candidates.
Called Virginia Votes 2009, the series features three half hour shows, each including interviews with the nominees for Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.
- Virginia Votes 2009 – The Candidates for Governor: Bob McDonnell (R) and Creigh Deeds (D)
- Virginia Votes 2009 – The Candidates for Lieutenant Governor: Jody Wagner (D) and Bill Bolling (R)
- Virginia Votes 2009 – The Candidates for Attorney General: Ken Cuccinelli (R) and Steve Shannon (D)
In Hampton Roads, the shows premiere this Sunday on Cox Channel 11, with all three shows being aired back-to-back, beginning at 8:30pm. The shows will also be shown on Cox Channel 9 in Roanoke, with a slightly different schedule.
Viewers who miss the airings can watch the shows on Cox on Demand in Hampton Roads, Roanoke and Northern Virginia, as well as on YouTube.

Has anyone ever heard of a group called ACORN ? Didn’t Obama work for them ?
Good to see Joel back on the air. WVEC really made a huge mistake when they canceled his show. Local tv is truly the “vast wasteland” its been called!
Is there anyway that we can see it in person?
I don’t believe so. Generally, these shows are taped in a studio.
