Richmond, VA -
Democrat Mark Warner took the oath of office as Virginia's 69th
governor Saturday, and pledged to work with the Republican-controlled
legislature to end the partisanship that resulted in last year's
unprecedented budget impasse.
On the sun-splashed south portico of the state Capitol, Warner
placed his left hand on the family Bible held by his wife, Lisa
Collis, raised his right hand and was sworn in by Virginia Chief
Justice Harry Carrico. Warner and Collis were joined on the
front row by their three young daughters.
Four Howitzers from a Virginia National Guard unit in Martinsville
and Chatham fired a 19-gun salute. Warner's inaugural address
covered broad themes of working hard, daring to dream and
reaching across political, ideological and cultural lines.
