Washington (CNN)  With a little more than seven months left until election day in Virginia, a new poll indicates the state's voters know very little about either of the two major party candidates running for governor.

According to a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday, 63% of voters in the state don't know enough about Democratic candidate Terry McAuliffe to form an opinion. Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, the Republican candidate, is slightly better known, but the survey indicates that 44% don't know enough about him to form an opinion.
