According to an anonymous Democrat Northam no longer thinks he is in the blackface photo.
A Virginia Democrat who has spoken with Gov. Ralph Northam has told The Associated Press that the governor now does not believe he was in a racist picture in his 1984 medical yearbook and has no immediate plans to resign.
The Democrat was not authorized to speak on the record to detail a private conversation.
The off the record comment is quite odd and makes this idea even less backed in fact but that still doesn’t change the fact Northam actually chose to put that picture on his yearbook page.

So since he admitted yesterday that it was him, is he suggesting that he dressed up in blackface or KKK robe a different time? https://t.co/NK2BckqCI8

STORY: Northam, hunkered down w advisers, is refusing to quit, making case he does not think it was him in the photo. And he’s desperate to prove it, even suggesting he’ll use facial recognition software. But some Va Dems say it’s too late, he must go >https://t.co/3G8O5zMyy7

If nothing else, he should resign for suggesting facial recognition on two people whose faces aren’t recognizable https://t.co/Jtqgq4dI9m
