Patrick Morrisey won the Republican primary for governor and will likely become the next chief executive. He previously challenged Joe Manchin III for a U.S. Senate seat and has been at the forefront of litigation against President Biden's policies.
The Republican candidates in the campaign ran to the right, criticizing each other for not being conservative enough and for not sufficiently opposing transgender rights. The winner will need to address West Virginia's challenges with child poverty, low labor force participation, and public health issues.
