You said “name the last black Governor”
Paterson. He became governor due to legal machinations.
Other than that, New York has never elected a black governor in its history. Not once since 1777.
So where's the problem?

Dims are the ones who make a huge deal out of it. They attack that person viciously and relentlessly.The mere fact every time the Repubs actually elect a black person they feel the need to make a huge deal about it should clue you in that it happens rarely.
It will be nice the day it is common place enough they do not feel the need to tout it each and every time it happens.
How long ago was it?
1990…
So you have one now but Patterson was never elected…
Again, why is it Democrats pass up minorities up for Whites?
I mean two Black Mayors in New York City history when Chicago and Houston have had multiple ones….
Just sad…
Both Illinois and California have elected Black Senators
The problem is that racists like you vote for people based on the color of their skin.NY has had a black Governor
Few states have and no Red State has had a black Governor
So, the problem is that Republicans elect few candidates who are not White, male, Christian and straight
Sears is the first black, woman to be elected in a statewide election, in Virginia.The mere fact every time the Repubs actually elect a black person they feel the need to make a huge deal about it should clue you in that it happens rarely.

Yet Virginia just elected black and Cuban Republicans.If you were a Black Republican
The base would not elect you
NY has had a black Governor
Allen West is another example.Yet Virginia just elected black and Cuban Republicans.
So you’re a liar.
You wanna talk less? Because you really should.

Do these people even hear themselves??
I said to higher office
That means Congressmen, Senators, Governors, Vice Presidents and President.
Start naming black Republicans, it won’t take you long
You also named a Governor that was never elected, so you also are cheating.Move that Goal Post
You said NYC has not elected black mayors and I named two
Game, set, match.
Race, gender, or ethnicity should not be requisite credentials for elected office. Ever.
Allen West is another example.
Ben Carson being selected as HHS Sec by the seemingly racist Trump is another example.
I could go on, but I require food.
