Fact-check: “A State has elected a Black governor”
Verdict: True (99% confidence)
Multiple authoritative primary sources confirm that at least three Black governors have been elected in U.S. history: L. Douglas Wilder (Virginia, 1989), Deval Patrick (Massachusetts, 2006), and Wes Moore (Maryland, 2022). The National Governors Association, the official Maryland Governor's website, and Virginia state sources all document this directly. No contrary evidence exists.
