He’s toast. Fairfax is not going to survive this.

And, that is absolutely going to piss off black voters...

because Northam and Herring stay.

The 2019 Virginia elections will take place on November 5, 2019. All 40 seats of the Senate of Virginia and 100 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates are up for re-election, as are many local offices.

What does Joe Biden have to say about Mr. Fairfax now?

--------

There is no place for racism in America. Governor Northam has lost all moral authority and should resign immediately, Justin Fairfax is the leader Virginia needs now.— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) February 2, 2019

I'm not so sure. There are similarities between Tyson's and Blasey Ford's accusations. That might make voters suspicious of Tyson.

I’d say the Christians in Virginia need to hit their knees and start crying out to God to heal their land.

You are probably right. But I don’t think Northam and Fishface stay. Check this out:

Hopefully, anybody in the legisl00ture, Dem or GOP, who is tied to this attempt to destroy the entire governor’s mansion politically, will get thrown out on his ass.

Fairfax isn’t in the club.

https://www.richmond.com/news/virginia/government-politics/how-outsider-justin-fairfax-broke-through-the-democratic-party-in/article_672c7f1d-718b-53e2-890c-0f266eb61aec.html

How outsider Justin Fairfax broke through the Democratic Party in bid for lieutenant governor

Mar 18, 2017

EXCERPT

Despite the résumé, however, it hasn’t been simple for Fairfax to crack through the Virginia establishment of his Democratic Party, which currently occupies all five statewide offices with white men.

Having never run for office before, Fairfax ran for attorney general in 2013, narrowly losing in the Democratic primary to Mark R. Herring, who went on to win the general election in a squeaker.

Fairfax has not been a part of the club. He’s only spoken in passing with Gov. Terry McAuliffe, the state party’s effervescent leader and the mansion’s occupant for the past three years.

But Fairfax is running for statewide office again, and the vibe around him is slowly changing.

Last year, after he announced a bid for lieutenant governor, the Democratic Party of Virginia booked one of Fairfax’s potential competitors, Del. Eileen Filler-Corn, D-Fairfax, at a state party convention. Fairfax’s campaign called it unfortunate and puzzling that he was denied a speaking spot. A Democratic Party official then attacked Fairfax, saying he was trying to divide the party — but the party promptly apologized for the attack and called Fairfax “a rising star in Virginia.”
