In service to our readers, I offer the following observation: After consultation with my best source for Virginia political news, the answer is "Kuh-nawt-un". I'd use the fancy pronunciation symbols that I learned back in first & second grade, but I've forgotten them. An alternative pronunciation might be "Kuh-naw-ton". (Either way, it sounds like Kanawha, the name given by the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway to its class K-4 locomotives of the 2-8-4 wheel arrangement.)
Representatives of the Connaughton campaign are invited to enlighten me on the proper pronunciation; I want to be accurate around here. For what it's worth, his platform announces spending for rail freight and passenger operations in the Commonwealth, so this could be good from my POV. Just so long as the Trans-Dominion Express is included in that budget.
