Patrick Morrisey will win the general election. But he will run 15-points behind Donald Trump and at least 12-points behind Jim Justice. He has a solid one-third of the Republican primary electorate behind him. He struggles with the rest of the voters.
Chris Miller’s vanity project is the reason Patrick Morrisey is the Republican nominee for Governor. There are many weak people to blame. But when you lament Morrisey as King — blame Chris Miller.
Capito pulls out a close race over Morrisey despite the terrible lies and ads run against him.
Justice’s endorsement will be the decider in what will have a clear north - south spilt.
Governor — longer post next
Sec of State - Skaff pulls the upset
Auditor - Hunt wins with a strong southern vote
AG - McCuskey in a bad choice for voters
AG Comm — Leonhardt gets a scare but eeks out a win
It’s a 2 person race between Morrisey and Capito.
Miller destroyed himself and will come in last. He has no core base of voters.
Warner will be a distant third. His folks show up but he doesn’t have enough money or ability to make a play.
Independents are going to represent a much larger share of the vote than they did in past elections. That hurts Morrisey as well.
Turnout in the south is higher than the eastern panhandle.
It’s going through be razor tight.
Turnout is higher than the Morrisey folks were hoping for. They wanted a low turnout election with around 140,000 votes. It’s not happening for him.
Early Vote puts it more in the 240,000 range. In 2018 Morrisey won with low turnout.
I’ve driven nearly a hundred thousand miles on this campaign across West Virginia because I believe the solutions to the challenges we face are in the communities and with you.
I’m asking for your trust, and I’m asking for your vote.
Interesting story. Unfortunately there are several groups or individuals this year engaged in independent expenditures who are not following the law related to reporting. It’s not hard to stay above board on this stuff.
Ripping around Jefferson and Berkeley counties today working to get people out to vote! Early voting ends today at 5 PM and Election Day is Tuesday! #Morrisey2024
Every day it seems Chris Miller is getting more and more desperate. He’a turned to lying about Moore Capito’s record on taxes. Moore cut taxes and never raised them. Just ask Chris’ Mom - Carol. They voted the exact same way!”
@CrescentGallagh Doesn’t say much about the effectiveness of AFP WV. How many doors knocked? And people are staying away from your candidate Patrick Morissey.
Thanks again to Vivek Ramaswamy for campaigning with me in Lewisburg, WV yesterday. Over the next few years, we will be focused on fighting back against the federal leviathan using our West Virginia v. EPA Supreme Court victory, which Vivek called "the most important SCOTUS win this century."
For those of you that couldn't attend, you can watch his full speech below!
Hearing WV Chamber has Governor’s race at 26 Morrisey to 25 Capito among likely voters.
Morrisey’s toast if that’s true. He went from 37 at the beginning of April to 26. An 11-point slide in a month.
Meanwhile Capito is rising fast. He went from 20% to 25%.
