((The candidates goals are the same in this tight knit race, to gain the support of as many voters as they can with the few days that are left. Senator Chuck Robb made an early morning stop in Christiansburg where he is trailing in the polls.

Robb says voters who feel like they've been left behind by his campaign should know he's been hard at work fulfilling the job he was elected for. Meanwhile Allen has made Southwest Virginia a frequent stopping point for his campaign. He rallied supporters at Roanoke Regional Airport.
