RICHMOND, Va. – Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin was sworn in as Virginia’s next governor on Saturday, Jan. 15.

The inauguration ceremony took place on the steps of the Virginia Capitol and began at 12:05 p.m. with an inaugural parade beginning shortly after at 1:20 p.m. You can view the parade from your device by clicking here.

Youngkin, Virginia’s 74th elected governor, is the first Republican elected to the office since Bob McDonnell was elected in November 2009.

This comes after Youngkin defeated his Democratic opponent and former governor Terry McAullife, flipping Virginia red.
