No surprise. Terry McAuliffe is a member of the Clinton Criminal Enterprise.

In Virginia all that is needed to override a veto is a simple majority in both houses.
Overriding a Veto
If the Legislature is still in session when the governor vetoes a bill, a simple majority vote of the members of both legislative bodies is necessary to override the veto. In cases when a budget bill or supplemental appropriation bill is vetoed, a two-thirds vote of the members of both houses is needed to override the veto.

His vetoes are overridden quite often, I think.

To be a Democrat, one must acquiesce to the unrestricted killing of pre born human life. Otherwise you cannot be a Democrat.

Abortion is the holy sacrament of the Marxist RAT party.
The great Democrat JFK would more than likely be booted from the RAT party in 2016.
(see)
Every wonder why you never hear about U. S. President John F.Kennedy's position on abortion?
There's a good reason why not: there is no public record of any statement by him on the subject. Isn't that astounding. One of the greatest leaders of the 20th century and no record of him speaking on one of the most controversial issues of our time!
The reason, in turn, for this is that abortion was not an issue before the late 1960's. Before that no major political, social, or religious group advocated legal abortion. For most it was an unspeakable crime of murder. You didn't hear stories about illegal, "back alley" abortions.
Isn't it ironic that in the past 35 years - as abortion has gone from totally illegal in the U. S. to totally available (even to the extent of allowing children to be directly killed as they are half-born) - that, during that same time, advances in science (such as ultrasound technology) have shown clearly that the unborn child is indeed a person and not a "blob of tissue".

Brought to you by... blue saturated metro areas of Virginia. The rest of the state has to suffer through yet another damn Yankee in charge. He is every loathsome thing demon-crats stand for.

“Planned Parenthood ... provides abortion and other health services.”
Abortion is a “health service???”. I would guess the baby would disagree.

Aborting black children is really what it is all about. The Democrat's hatred towards blacks overwhelms any other human sentiments about the value of human life.

Abortion was one of the crimes against humanity specifically named at Nuremberg.

I’m not surprised because he is a “Catholic” politician (and I’m Catholic); why isn’t Francis weighing in on this? Terry also supports “gay marriage”...
