Democrat candidate for governor of Virginia hides his black running mate

Erick Erickson:
Oh how Democrats will make excuses for their own side. In Virginia, Ralph Northam is the Democrats’ nominee for governor. He has a black running mate named Justin Fairfax. Except, in Northern Virginia, you would never know that. Justin Fairfax has been memory holed in Northern Virginia. Ralph Northam deleted Fairfax from palm cards being passed out.

Why would they delete Fairfax in Northern Virginia? Well, one of the more powerful unions in Virginia favors a pipeline that Justin Fairfax opposes. The Atlantic Coast Pipeline has been pushed by the unions passing out the palm cards for Northam’s campaign. So the only statewide black Democratic candidate has to be deleted from the palm cards.
...
It appears that he is really trying to hide his ties to the anti-energy left.  Opposition to pipelines is also anti-consumer driving up the cost of energy and its availability.  It also is detrimental to US national security.

erickson also points out that the media would be having a hair on fire moment if criticism if a Republican dissed his black running mate.
