Justice's campaign told Fox News Digital that the DSCC letter proved Democrats were 'in panic mode' over his campaign.
Justice’s campaign said the move showed Democrats were "in panic mode" over his bid to run for the Senate. In a statement first sent to Fox News Digital, Justice's team dismissed the legal threat as an effort by Democrats to bolster his GOP primary opponent, who they see as less competitive. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
"Chuck Schumer and the Democrats have seen the polling that shows Governor Jim Justice winning this race and are in panic mode," Justice campaign manager Roman Stauffer said. "They want Alex Mooney as the Republican nominee because they can beat him. The Democrats see that Governor Justice will be West Virginia's next U.S. Senator and will likely help Mooney in the Republican Primary Election."
