The Circus heads to Virginia for the final sprint in a neck and neck gubernatorial race - a contest that's seen as a bellwether for next year's midterm elections, when control of Congress will be on the line. Alex Wagner speaks with Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin just after a new poll shows a tied race. John Heilemann and Jennifer Palmieri catch up with former Democratic Governor Terry McAuliffe on the campaign trail as he seeks reelection. Meanwhile, Mark McKinnon breaks down Youngkin's strategy with his campaign advisors.
