The latest News7 SurveyUSA poll released Tuesday morning shows a dead heat between long-time incumbent Rick Boucher and Republican Morgan Griffith.
Just a few weeks ago, Boucher appeared to be cruising to another term with double-digit leads.
Now the race is too close to call, as independents have shifted their votes to Griffith, and Boucher's lead among women has evaporated.
