Teachers Strike Boosts West Virginia Democrats in Primary
The West Virginia Education Association toppled Senate President William T. Brotherton and Finance Chairman John Pat Fanning in the Democratic primary, signaling teacher muscle though leaders warn the situation could backfire. Republicans see a chance to defeat Robert Wise, while Del. Lacy Wright is likely safe. Congress rejected Carter's ten cent gasoline tax as inflationary and ineffective, with Reagan seen as more capable on energy policy.
