Gov. Northam extends business closures, calls for Virginians to adapt to 'new normal
Whsv ^ | 04/15/2020 | Caleb Stewart

The governor has been providing regularly scheduled briefings at 2 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to provide the latest updates.

On Monday, he provided new details on a Virginia-specific model from UVA, talked about statewide responses at long-term care centers, and said he would have a decision by Wednesday on how long to postpone the re-opening of non-essential businesses.

Last Friday, he announced plans to establish a nursing home task force, proposed the release of inmates with less than year left in their sentences, and emphasized a need for volunteers.

On April 8, he announced that he was postponing Virginia's June primary election and recommending that local elections in May be postponed to November by the General Assembly

I am having increasing reservations about what Northam is doing.

I simply can’t understand why Virginia isn’t schedule to re-open until June 10th. That is the very last state in the country.

I understand that we may be 2-3 weeks behind NJ, NY and CT. But that doesn’t translate into June 10th.

The recall process in VA is very difficult.

Just accept “the new normal”. No where have I heard that before?

Socialism delivers crap results and everyone’s expected to accept it. We used to call this incompetence.

Hope those Virginians hold on to and hide their arms.

They’ll be needing them.

Leftists will not go willingly, but they will have to go sooner or later.

Recalls everywhere are placed on the books in a way that makes them theoretically possible, but practically impossible.

Maybe he is trying to deliberately destroy the economy, permanently. He’s probably a commie rat bastard anyway, so it’s possible.

Northam is following the Obama Model...attempting to push right of center Virginians into some sort of reaction that will justify declaring martial law and draconian restrictions.

Northam must be stopped. It doesn’t appear possible to recall him or limit his tyranny within the existing Virginia structures so other means need to be found.

Did he say why he chose June 10th as the date? He should had said May 15th because that would give him 30 days of data to make a decision.

One can’t help but wonder if all these petty Stalinist @holes have clue one as to how much actual HATRED they’re creating.

Millions out there simply don’t buy that ‘turn the other cheek’ bromide . . .

The “new normal” they are working toward is socialism. Think: frog in pot of water. They have lured everyone into the pot. Now they are turning up the heat.

Obama’s people coined the “new normal”. I couldn’t stand that phrase then and it really pisses me off now.

Northern Virginia elected him, not the rest of Virginia. Northern Virginia nullifies our votes. Virginia governors only get one term.
