Throughout the day, Warner nervously checked on get-out-the-vote efforts. At one point, the governor had his driver stop so he could review Democratic campaign literature left on the windshield of a car outside one of the churches.
Later, he attended partisan and spirited rallies in Winchester and Charlottesville.
"I see so much enthusiasm for Tim Kaine. Look at this: Sunday afternoon in Winchester," he said, pointing to the crowd of about 200 near that city's downtown courthouse.
In Charlottesville, he reminded voters that President Bush was coming to campaign for Kilgore in Richmond tonight.
"If we want to make a comparison of how things are going in Virginia and how things are going in Washington, I'll take that comparison any day of the week," he told the cheering crowd.
In an interview, Warner said he felt confident about Kaine's chances, if voters make their choice based on the direction of the state and how government has been run -- "what takes 98 percent of a governor's time" rather than "these social hot-button issues" -- then "I think we'll be fine."
Warner plans to rejoin Kaine today and will attend an 11:30 a.m. rally at Market Square in Alexandria.
Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. tomorrow.
