See below for some interesting information from VPAP, which finds that at this point in 2013, Governor-elect Terry McAuliffe had named 10 cabinet appointees; in 2017, Governor-elect Ralph Northam had named 9 cabinet appointees; and so far this year, Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin has named just 3 cabinet appointees (Aimee Rogstad Guidera as Secretary of Education, Caren Merrick as Secretary of Commerce, Steve Cummings as Secretary of Finance).
