RICHMOND, Va. -- November's elections are fast approaching, so it's time to meet the candidates, all of whom have been invited on CBS 6 News at 7 p.m.

Monday night, Rep. Dave Brat, a Republican running for re-election in the 7th district, stopped by the studio.

Brat discussed the state of the economy, and healthcare, among other issues.

Several polls measuring approval of the tax bill passed at the end of last year, were mentioned in our discussion.
