West Virginia's Mooney runs for Congress but aims at Manchin
Fox News
West Virginia's Republican representative Alex Mooney is positioned to sweep the upcoming midterm election against progressive Democratic candidate Barry Wendell.
Mooney is expected to breeze to victory in deep-red West Virginia’s 2nd Congressional District, and he's all but completely ignored Wendell. Instead, he's spending much of his energy on Manchin, who endorsed Mooney's opponent, outgoing Rep. David McKinley, during the state's May primary. The two GOP congressmen were pitted against each other after population losses cost West Virginia a U.S. House seat, and Mooney won handily.
Manchin has not yet officially announced whether he'll run for reelection in 2024, and Mooney vows that his primary concern is seeing himself and other conservatives get elected and take back the majority in the U.S. House.
