In the wake of a growing chorus of Democrats calling for him to resign, including Gov. McAuliffe, Del. Joe Morrissey has asked Paul Goldman to look into the legal, constitutional and political options available to him.
Does this mean Morrissey is going to fight? No. Nor does it mean that he is going to resign.
And any such assessment will begin with a look at Article 4, Section 7 of the Virginia Constitution.
We may know something about that in the next couple of days.
Update
And on Sunday, we get this:
Basically, Morrissey summoned media to church, let them wait 2 hs, then said God will decide when it's time for him to step down. Ok then.
