    A large majority of black Virginians say Ralph Northam should NOT resign, while whites are significantly more likely to say he should resign. Definitely not the dynamic you'd expect based on the media coverage https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/virginia-politics/virginians-split-on-governors-fate-amid-blackface-scandal-poll-shows/2019/02/09/93002e84-2bc1-11e9-b011-d8500644dc98_story.html …pic.twitter.com/qeE7ECca1w

        What it proves is that charges of racism are increasingly used as a cynical political tool. If the guy agrees with your politics, then it's a youthful indiscretion. If he doesn't, then he's a racist. Query: what would the black poll numbers be if Northam were a Republican?

        It makes perfect sense when you consider the vast majority of AA's identify as Democrats. The AA numbers and Democrat numbers are within the margin of error of each other.

        As a native Virginian (75 yrs. in the state), I can say categorically that dressing up in 'blackface" is quite tame compared to other racial activities Virginians have engaged in in past times. Fortunately, with few exceptions, those times are over.

        Does this suggest that white people are overestimating the offense of a blackface Michael Jackson costume? (Or comparable use of blackface in an otherwise benign effort to create a costume of a black celebrity?)

        I would suspect this is because of "white guilt" that permeates their worldview. Most normal people are willing to forgive stupid mistakes if people have actually changed their behavior. However, we're now in a climate of conviction of present and past sins, evidence or not.

        Am not from Virginia but am the other thing and I too think he should stay in given the circumstances. While in office he should be pressured to push for substantial and radical legislation to improve the lives of POC in VA.

        Pairs well with how the reported parties responded to this poll.
