Richmond, Virginia (CNN) - Hours before the polls open in Virginia, Republican gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli enlisted Libertarian hero and former Texas Congressman Ron Paul to speak at a campaign rally in Richmond in a final effort to unite the base.
Supporters who turned out for the late evening event at the Richmond Convention Center embraced a message that focused on Libertarian themes.
"I've done very little travelling and campaigning this time around, but this one I came to because I know your candidate is a defender of liberty," Ron Paul said to a cheering crowd.
The Libertarians are precisely the voters the Republican candidate needs to sway for a win Tuesday. That's because third party candidate, Liibertarian Robert Sarvis, is polling at eight percent, according a Quinnipiac poll released Monday.
Cuccinelli, the Virginia attorney general, trails former Democratic National Chairman Terry McAuliffe by six points, according to the same Quinnipiac poll.
The Cuccinelli camp hopes the Paul endorsement will bring those splintered Libertarian voters back into the GOP fold.
McAuliffe's final campaign push included star power appearances Monday from Vice President Joe Biden. President Obama , former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also stumped for him in the final weeks.
The Cuccinelli campaign has framed the election as a referendum on Obamacare and hopes to capitalize on the problem-plagued rollout.
Paul hit that message hard tonight. "This Obamacare is a monster," he said He described Obamacare taxes as "evil", claiming "they are going to create a class warfare."
As Virginia's attorney general, Cuccinelli sued the Obama administration over the Affordable Care Act. A case that was later dismissed.

Campaigning for Libertarians, Ron Paul stumps for Cuccinelli in VA
Posted on: 11:43 pm, November 4, 2013, by Alix Bryan, updated on: 12:10am, November 5, 2013
RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR)Libertarian Robert Sarvis, the third party candidate on the Virginia ballot for governor, is headed towards a possibly historic day, regardless of a victory at the polls.
Hes already shaken up the race, had a double-digit showing at the polls, been endorsed and mentioned by newspapersall signs that indicate37-year-old Sarvis will have one of the better Libertarian party showings, not just in the state but in the nation.
Smart Politics, a political news site out of Minnesota, took a look at more than 200 Libertarian candidates dating back to the 1970s and concluded Sarvis will have had one of the top three strongest candidacies in party history,after all the votes are tallied.
In 2002,Ed Thompson received 10.5% of the vote in his Wisconsin gubernatorial run or the same office. That resulted in a seat on the state elections board for the Libertarian Party.
According to Smart Politics, the only other Libertarian to reach five percent in a gubernatorial race was Sam Steiger, Arizona, 1982.
While its incredibly likely that Sarvis wont be the next governor of Virginia, if he gets the votes that have been pledged to him so far, he could secure the 10 percent needed to gain ballot access for state and local offices (but not federal races) through 2021, according to the State Board of Elections.
It just remains to be seen if people will follow through behind the voting curtain.

Chinese marine surveillance ships have continued their regular patrols in the territorial waters surrounding the Diaoyu Islands on Feb. 15, 2013. The destination is the waters 3-nautical miles from the Diaoyu Islands. The 4-hour patrol was completed after the fleet sailed around Diaoyu Island and its affiliated islets.(Xinhua/Zhang Jiansong)
The Japanese government seems to have stepped up a lobbying campaign around the world to create the illusion that the Chinese-owned Diaoyu Islands belong to Japan.
The Wall Street Journal, a mainstream U.S. newspaper, acted as a trumpet for the Japanese government, as it published an editorial Friday claiming that the sovereignty of the Diaoyu Islands has been settled by the Americans in favor of Japan in the early 1970s.
It even urged the Obama administration to be "more explicit" that the islands in the East China Sea are Japanese, so that Beijing is more likely to back down.
The editorial marks the first time for a major U.S. newspaper to publicly call on Washington to acknowledge that the Diaoyu Islands belong to Japan, since Tokyo's "nationalization" of the uninhabited islands from private hands in late 2012.
The WSJ, despite its reputed balanced news reporting, has regrettably taken an extreme stance in this editorial article.
It seems to have ignored repeated statements from the White House that the United States does not take a position on territorial disputes between China and Japan, in which America is not a directly concerned party and should remain neutral.
By siding with the Japanese, the paper has in fact fallen victim to Japan's international lobbying and served as a pawn in Tokyo's despicable scheme to usurp on the Diaoyu Islands, which have been proved the Chinese territory since ancient times.

One rocky month into the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, a health care forum in McKinnon Hall found the issue far from settled on Monday.
Three invited professionals joined nine lay panelists from campus and the local community to expose the people behind the largely political debate. The panel was sponsored by a partnership between Elon University and the Burlington Times-News.
Each person left uninsured by the Affordable Care Act is an avoidable tragedy, according to Ginette Archinal, medical director of student health at Elon.
My personal point of view about health care is that we have a moral responsibility to provide affordable, basic health care to everybody in society, she said. I find it morally reprehensible that so much of our society does not have access to basic health care.
And now more than ever, these health care needs are increasing thanks in no small part to preventable lifestyle choices such as smoking, poor nutrition and lack of exercise, said Miles Grunvald, a first-year medical student at the University of Vermont and Class of 2013 alumnus.

There will always be chronic diseases that will be costly to our country, but by encouraging preventative measures we can work to eliminate them, he said.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 65 percent of North Carolina adults are overweight and 28 percent are obese. Higher obesity rates are tied to greater need for health care, Grunvald said.
The less health care the average person requires, the reduced the strain is on a universal health care system, said Preston Hammock, president and COO of Alamance Regional Medical Center.
The most expensive place to get care is the hospital. To fix this, weve got to keep people out of the hospital, he said. It is absolutely the right thing to do to have that patient live at home and contribute that much more to society.

National health care overhaul hits home in Alamance County through community forum
The health care company whose now fired employee is accused of raping a patient issued comments on the case and the former worker Monday.
The ex-employee, 37-year-old Marcus Fox, was arrested Friday and remains in the Montgomery County Jail on three counts of rape.
Deputies said he worked as an in-home health care aide in the Washington Twp. home of the 81-year-old victim, who has Alzheimer's and dementia.
Deputies said they do not know exactly how long the situation had been going on. Fox, when pressed by investigators, told them he estimated it started "two or three weeks ago, maybe a month."
Monday, Pat Luers, owner and president of BrightStar, the in-home health care provider with locations in Centerville and South Dayton, said his company was "saddened and disturbed" to learn of the allegations.
"Our heart goes out to the family, and we are working closely with them and doing everything possible to help them through the situation," Luers said.
"Stringent screening standards were followed when this individual was hired including criminal background checks; none of which indicated any cause for concern. We took immediate action when we were made aware of the situation including removing the accused individual from all patient care and notifying proper authorities. He has since been terminated," Luers said.
Luers said BrightStar is continuing to cooperate with the local authorities in the case.
Fox has been fired, Luers told News Center 7's Yuna Lee.
"The family has chosen to continue working with our agency," he noted. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time."

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The health care overhaul might get a Hollywood rewrite.
The California Endowment, a private foundation that is spending millions to promote President Barack Obama's signature law, recently provided a $500,000 grant to ensure TV writers and producers have information about the Affordable Care Act that can be stitched into plot lines watched by millions.
The aim is to produce compelling prime-time narratives that encourage Americans to enroll, especially the young and healthy, Hispanics and other key demographic groups needed to make the overhaul a success.
"We know from research that when people watch entertainment television, even if they know it's fiction, they tend to believe that the factual stuff is actually factual," said Martin Kaplan of the University of Southern California's Norman Lear Center, which received the grant.
The public typically gets as much, if not more, information about current events from favorite TV programs as mainstream news outlets, Kaplan said, so "people learn from these shows."
California Republican strategist Jonathan Wilcox, who has taught a course on politics and celebrity at USC, said the attempt to engage Hollywood was coming too late to influence views, and he doubted fictionalized TV would play into families' decisions about health care.
"This is an attempt to use entertainment pop culture to fix a political challenge," he said. "It will be received as a partisan political message, no matter how cleverly it's delivered."
Hollywood is known for supporting Democratic candidates and causes Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler are among a long list of celebrities who have made a pitch for the law but there is no guarantee the entertainment industry will be in lockstep with the White House on health care.
Just last week, a "South Park" episode was largely devoted to mocking a malfunctioning website billed as a "simple, integrated portal" for health services. When it's being demonstrated for students, a laptop instead starts playing Lionel Richie's "All Night Long (All Night)."
About 16 percent of Americans are uninsured and surveys have shown many still know little or nothing about the health care law even though sign-ups for insurance have started. The challenge for the law's supporters is to connect with the millions of Americans who for whatever reason haven't paid attention.

Health Care Practitioners Gather to Heal Christchurch
Press Release 5/11/13
The ongoing and arguably the growing needs of the people of Christchurch for support in stress related illnesses are not going unnoticed. In March 2012, 70 health care practitioners gathered for a weekend and set up in the Geo-domes of Hagley Park, to participate in Heal Christchurch and delivered 2000 free treatments to over 1100 visitors. This weekend, they are returning to repeat the exercise and will be based at the YMCA Christchurch.
Three years on from the beginning of the earthquake turmoil and the needs of the people of Christchurch have not dissipated. News articles announcing statistics relating to the number of antidepressants being prescribed and divorce rates, sit alongside proclamations of how many insurance claims have been settled or disputed.
Travelling from afar afield as California, Box Hill and Toowoomba in Australia, Auckland, Wellington, Nelson and Cromwell, health care practitioners are making their way at their own expense to join their Christchurch colleagues in gifting treatments. Their modalities include chiropractic, naturopathic, herbal medicine and therapeutic massage and their aim is to contribute to the health and aid the recovery of the people in the earthquake damaged city.
John Loveday is one of the practitioners attending Heal Christchurch. He is a chiropractor who owns a successful wellness practice in Nelson and repeats his journey having attended the Heal Christchurch event of 2012. He is joining 30 other practitioners and volunteers who are taking appointments and contributing to the event.
The first Heal Christchurch event in 2012 proved phenomenally successful, says John Loveday, with a post event survey of attendees showing 93% satisfaction rating. Since the in inaugural Heal Christchurch, John has undertaken to list the event as a charitable trust to assist the organisation in raising funds to operate the event. This year sponsors from Red Seal, Alexanders Marketing, Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools and Spa and the USA based One Net Research Foundation are amongst businesses who contributed their support.
There are many stress related illnesses the practitioners at Heal Christchurch will be able to address, says John Loveday. They may vary from sleep disorders, headaches and body aches, to mood swings and depression and we emphasise that all age groups and families with children are welcome.
A Facebook page and website http://www.healchristchurch.net guides people through the explanation of how the event works and allows online booking of appointments. For those living in the Garden City the facts remain that roads, homes, communities, businesses and families are strained, broken and need support and we are here to do our bit to help, says John.
