The Virginia governor's race has potentially national implications. It is a dead heat between Democrat Terry McCauliffe and Republican Glenn Youngkin, the former governor versus the uneasy recipient of a Trump endorsement, with the former president a wildcard in the wings. CNN Senior Political Commentator David Axelrod and CNN Political Analyst and Axios Managing Editor Margaret Talev talk about the significance being attached to the race by Democrats for what it could foretell about next year's midterms. Plus, Pope Francis and President Biden, the world's two most powerful members of the Catholic faith, met today at the Vatican.
After, Biden said Francis had told him he was pleased he was a "good Catholic," and that he should continue receiving communion, despite opposition from some conservative American bishops over his support for abortion. CNN Political Commentator and Former Massachusetts Democratic Congressman Joe Kennedy talks about the President's visit with the Pope.
