Good Riddance to Ralph Northam and Terry McAuliffe

With Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin's two-percentage point upset victory, angry parents likely put an end to the careers of current Gov. Ralph Northam and 2014-2018 Gov. Terry McAuliffe.

As we bid adieu to 2021, let's take a ride down memory lane as we also bid good riddance to Northam and McAuliffe.

With Virginia's restriction that governors may only serve one consecutive term, McAuliffe was out and Northam was in after winning the 2017 election by nine percentage points.

Like pretty much every other Democrat in Virginia and most of the country, McAuliffe called on Northam to resign during the initial blackface outrage.

Two years later, McAuliffe was asking Northam to campaign with him anyway.

Virginia parents put the final nail in the coffin of the political careers of McAuliffe and Northam.

Perhaps Youngkin will manage to exceed the bar set by Northam and McAuliffe.
