Well WV’s representation is all R’s. Crazy, I can remember a time when their delegation was mostly D except Capito who incidentally enough now is the R Senator.Honestly, as a descendant of miners, I hate how RW that state has gotten. I’m not surprised but I’m disappointed that a state that with so much history with unions has decided to embrace a party that would throw the National Labor Relations Act and wipe it with toilet paper if they could.

Same thing with Kentucky. It use to be all democratic except for Eastern Kentucky, which had been pro union in the Civil War, and state government remained mostly in Democratic control until just a few years ago. We lucked into electing Beshear Governor in 2019 by the skin of his teeth, because the GOP Governor was such an ass everyone hated him, and Beshear’s dad had been a popular governor so he had great name recognition.
