Jim Justice soars past Joe Manchin in West Virginia Senate race: poll
Just the News ^ | 10/13/23 | Ben Whedon

West Virginia Republican Gov. Jim Justice stands well ahead of Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., in the race to represent the state in the U.S. Senate, according to a recent survey.

The governor outpaced the incumbent senator 13% in the latest Emerson College survey, with 41% of voters backing Justice and 28% supporting Manchin. The Democratic senator has not announced his reelection plans.

Justice, meanwhile, faces a primary challenger in the form of Rep. Alex Mooney, R-W.Va., whom Manchin beat 37% to 31% in a head to head matchup. Explaining Manchin's stronger performance against Mooney seem to be split attitudes among independents on the Republican candidates.

Manchin may really be in trouble in his re-election chances next year.

Referendum on Biden and Beltway election theft. There is absolutely nothing Manchin can do to save himself.

Joe Manchin represented well for West Virginia. His fatal political error was representing the Democrat Party first and not the voters of West Virginia. He is dead political meat.

So long Joe and I wish you well in political obscurity. You are finished.

Joe Manchin should run as an independent against
Pres. Joe Bribeme. Im sure there must be some
"moderate" Democrats who'd vote for him.

Manchin got fooled by the Burden administration. West Virginians won’t forget.

Maybe they’re related. Be great having a senator strutting around, spewing a steady stream of invective and profanity at everyone.

You won’t see austerity. You won’t see honesty. But at least you’ll see a show.

Joe Manchin represented well for West Virginia.

I never saw that from my perspective here in WEST VIRGINIA.

Agreed. How many times do West Virginians have to be betrayed before they’ll turn on Manchin? I think the last few years have been one betrayal too many.

Remember Jim Justice holding up that dawg at some event or other, showing the dawg’s @$$ and making a really funny comment? Video hit the networks, IIRC.

He should have been beat last cycle. Sadly the GOP candidate was just not a great candidate.
