Glenn Allen Youngkin (born December 9, 1966) is the Governor-elect of his home state of Virginia. A Republican, he narrowly defeated the Democrat former Governor Terry McAuliffe in the 2021 Virginia gubernatorial election, a victory widely considered a rejection of the left-wing, establishmentarian presidency of Joe Biden.

Before running for Governor in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Youngkin was a businessman for 25 years, becoming a co-CEO of the Carlyle Group, a company hosting financial and asset management services connected to the World Economic Forum.

Political career

Before education became the hot-button issue, Youngkin ran a moderate campaign,[1] airing an advertisement seeming to imply that white supremacists were responsible for rising crime[2] and refraining from a strong condemnation of abortion during a debate.[3][4] Youngkin also supported the removal of a Robert E. Lee statue from a public park.[5]

Youngkin won with 50.7 percent of the popular vote. Even far-left biased newspaper The Guardian admitted that the victory constitutes "a blow" to Joe Biden, who campaigned with McAuliffe before going to a climate change conference to which Russia and China did not send delegates.[6]

In January 2022, Youngkin will succeed the term-limited Democrat Governor Ralph Northam. Many [[conservative]s]] became disillusioned with Youngkin even before he could take office. First, he announced that he would not interfere with locally-passed mask and vaccin mandates. Then he hired Joshua Marin-Mora, a skirt-wearing LBGT activist to his communications staff. Marin-Mora opposes fossil fuels and has backed Green New Deal proposals.[7]
