Democratic Virginia Governor-elect Ralph Northam was escorted off stage by his security detail after protesters disrupted his victory speech Tuesday night.

Northam was telling a jubilant crowd of supporters that he had “received a gracious call” from his Republican opponent Ed Gillespie when a male protester yelled, “Sanctuary for all,” an apparent reference to the serving lieutenant governor’s pledge to sign any bill that came to his desk that would ban sanctuary cities.
