Morefield passes on Senate nomination in Virginia race
Delegate James W. Morefield of Tazewell says he will not seek the Republican nomination for the 38th Senate District seat vacated by Phillip Puckett. He cites focus on current House projects and a desire to aid the region from the House, while noting coal job decline and ongoing regional development efforts including a proposed 500 jobs project and a natural gas vehicle initiative. A special election to fill the vacancy will be held.
