Abigail Spanberger becomes Virginia's 1st female governor in historic inauguration

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Democrat Abigail Spanberger has been sworn into office as Virginia’s first female governor. Spanberger was sworn in at noon Saturday amid a cold drizzle outside the state Capitol after centuries of men holding the state’s top office.
