(CNN) With a libertarian third-party candidate threatening to spoil his chances of winning the Virginia governorship, Republican nominee Ken Cuccinelli received a welcome endorsement Friday from the desk of Ron Paul. <\/p>\n
Paul, the former Texas congressman and the guiding light of libertarians everywhere, endorsed Cuccinelli in a letter to the Virginia attorney general. <\/p>\n
Ken Cuccinelli has always stood for smaller government and limited government, he has consistently and unapologetically worked with the Liberty movement in Virginia, Paul said in the letter, which is being distributed by Cuccinellis campaign. <\/p>\n
His stand against Obamacare shows he is willing to stand up to Washingtons continued abuses on our individual liberties. I am proud to endorse to Ken for Governor of Virginia, Paul wrote. <\/p>\n
Cuccinelli trails Democrat Terry McAuliffe in the race by anywhere from six to 10 points, depending on the poll. <\/p>\n
But with voters expressing negative opinions about both major party candidates, Robert Sarvis, the underdog libertarian candidate, has crept up in the polls, reaching double digits in some surveys. <\/p>\n
Privately, Republicans worry that Sarvis is draining conservative support from Cuccinelli. <\/p>\n
Sarvis told CNN last month that he voted for Paul in Virginias GOP presidential primary in 2012. <\/p>\n
