Southern West Virginia GOP reshuffles open Dems’ path to power
In Mercer County the November ballot saw front runners displaced for new nominees. After Don Caruth’s death, John Shott left his House seat for the Senate, triggering nominations of Bill Cole, Marty Gearheart, and Ron Satterfield for the vacated House post, with Cole later chosen by Gov. Manchin. The move unsettled observers as Democrat Wills eyed the Senate seat and Gearheart faced a possible write in challenge. Samantha Perry, Daily Telegraph.
