He's done. Fairfax will be Governor by Tuesday. Probably sooner

This really is in the hands of his lt governor. If he backs the governor I suspect he stays in office. If he moves against the governor, he will be gone.

Oh I forgot about that ludicrous ad showing a truck with a confederate flag truck supposedly representing Republicans/Trump supporters roaring down the street as little black and Hispanic kids literally ran for their lives. It would be poetic justice if he was forced out.

A photo from Gov. Ralph Northam’s medical school yearbook shows two men, one in blackface and one in a Ku Klux Klan robe and hood, on the same page as the governor.

The photo, which The Virginian-Pilot obtained a copy of Friday from the Eastern Virginia Medical School library, comes from the 1984 yearbook, the year Northam graduated.

On the half-page set aside for Northam, there is a headshot of him in a jacket and tie, a photo of him in a cowboy hat and boots and a third of him sitting casually on the ground, leaning against a convertible.

The fourth photo on the half-page has two people, one wearing white Ku Klux Klan robes and a hood, the other with his face painted black. The person with the black face is also wearing a white hat, black jacket, white shirt with a bow tie and plaid pants. Both are holding canned drinks.
Wow. What a stellar, upstanding, model citizen and truly respectable man this governor truly is turning out to be. LOL

He supports infanticide and now is called out as a racist in black face and standing next to a guy wearing a KKK uniform.....Not when he was a teenager, this dude was 25 at that time!

This dude is pure garbage and needs to be put on the curb and taken to the dump where he belongs.

For real, I mean, he should resign immediately...pretty disgusting, low stuff....

Don't judge others by yourself. You'd be wrong.

That ad was horrible. Fear-mongering at its best.

This guy is a first-class race-baiter. This was one of the most egregious political TV spots you will ever see.

It is a bit ironic that when Northam supported full term abortions, including infanticide if it proves necessary, he was cheered by the left, but these photos are what it takes to call for his ouster. Don't get me wrong, posing for that photo was incredibly wrong, but I'd put full term abortions as an even more egregious societal harm.
