WATCH: DGA Chair Governor Andy Beshear Discusses Historic Elections of Governors-elect Keisha Lance-Bottoms, David Crowley and Aaron Ford on MS NOW

DGA Chair Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear joined Politics Nation with Reverend Al Sharpton over the weekend to discuss the historic elections of incoming governors Keisha Lance Bottoms in Georgia, David Crowley in Wisconsin, and Aaron Ford in Nevada, who will all be the first Black governor in their respective states. Bottoms will be the first Black woman governor in the United States.

Gov. Beshear told MS NOW: "David Crowley, Aaron Ford, Keisha Lance Bottoms, all worked so hard and earned those governorships, and I'm so proud to have worked alongside them. And the DGA was the biggest funder in each and every one of those races…The American people stepped up and sent a really important message that we will not be pushed backwards. We will continue to try to bend that moral arc of the universe towards justice."

Governor Wes Moore, who won re-election and is the country's only current Black governor, made it a "personal mission" to help win these races and spent significant time "aggressively campaigning" for Bottoms, Crowley and Ford.
