Embattled Virginia Governor Ralph Northam said the state’s lieutenant governor should resign if the allegations of sexual assault surrounding him turn out to be true. Northam, in the meantime, repeatedly insisted that he would not resign over his own controversy relating to a racist yearbook photo that recently surfaced.
Speaking to “CBS This Morning” in an interview to be broadcast on Feb. 11, Northam said he had considered resigning in the wake of the political fallout but said he had learned from the controversy. The photo from his yearbook showed one person in blackface standing next to a masked person in Ku Klux Klan robes.
