Does the Virginia Attorney General, Mark Herring, who is third in the line of succession if both Northam and Fairfax are forced to resign, and also a Democrat (of course), also have a Blackface Photo Problem?
We don't know for sure yet but the answer is "Yes."

As a reminder, just four days ago, Herring called on Northam to resign:
It is no longer possible for Governor Northam to lead our Commonwealth and it is time for him to step down. I have spoken with Lieutenant Governor Fairfax and assured him that, should he ascend to the governorship, he will have my complete support and commitment to ensuring his success and the success of our CommonwealthIf the three executives facing various scandals found themselves out of office, then next up to bat would be Republican Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates, Kirk Cox.
