Sources close to The Republican Standard are indicating that Governor-elect Ralph Northam’s selection for Secretary for Commerce and Trade is being held up for the reason most folks expect.
…a Republican member of the Virginia State Senate is being considered for the position.
Of course, if economic growth and job creation is priority #1, the idea that C&T is somehow being delayed or ignored for other considerations seems rather obtuse.
Question is… who is being considered?
UPDATE: Issued at 1:37pm today from the Governor-elect. Apparently, we have an announcement to make on Wednesday:
1:00PM Governor-elect Northam to make a personnel announcementRichmond Electricians’ Joint Apprenticeship and Training Center
