[EL] Cuccinelli: No conflict for AG's office to preside over election

[Mark Schmitt]

>From Wikipedia, it looks like nine previous Virginia AGs have run for 
governor since the office was created in 1918, and eight of them 
resigned early in the election year. The exception seems to have been 
Marshall Coleman in 1981.
