I think we are allowed to back McGeehan because I doubt he has any witchcraft in his youth.
A tough hurdle for an Irishman to win over those small-town DEMS in southern WVA. Dj, those hillbilly DEMS gonna back McGeehan? He sounds like a yankee. Must be from the north.
Back in 1960 they say it took a lot of bribery but some guy named Kennedy won a Democrat primary there.
They voted "fur" that Irishman Kennedy long ago. They voted "aginst" that Black Irishman O'Bammy twice (who failed to carry a single county in '12). I think a lot of West Virginians are starting to return to their pre-1932 voting habits (when the state was heavily Republican from the McKinley era). It's breaking GOP from the top down.

His hometown is Chester, which is the northernmost town in the state of WV, just about in the Pittsburgh media market (I'm presuming). That's also closer to Cleveland than Charleston (the capitol). Being from the extreme north end of the state might be a problem. He might be better off opening a campaign HQ in Charleston (right in the middle of Capito Country). He's also going to have to do some major fundraising, too.
