CHARLESTON, WV (WOWK) – The Mountain State held its primary election today, deciding on who will face off for races including governor and who will represent West Virginia in the United States Senate.
Putnam County voters decided to allow medical cannabis organizations to operate growing facilities, processing facilities and dispensaries with approximately 64% pf the vote for each. Voters approved laboratories with almost 65%.
Current Gov. Jim Justice will face off against the Democratic candidate for governor in the General Election after winning the Republican nomination.
Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (WV-R) held on to the Republican nomination for her United States Senate seat.
In a statement sent to 13 News, said the West Virginia Primary, “certainly has been unusual.”
“I am deeply honored that so many West Virginia Republicans came out and voted for me and asked to send me back to the United States Senate for another term,” she said. “I’m working hard on economic development issues as we reopen from this COVID pandemic. I have been very mindful to make sure that West Virginia is a part of both the health and economic circumstances that we found ourselves in. And I’m ready for our economy to get going, moving and growing so that we can take off where we left off.”
As expected President Donald Trump and Joe Biden received West Virginia’s nods for the Republican and Democratic presidential nominations. Biden officially took the Democratic nomination earlier this week.

Buckley, thou shouldst be living in this day.
That actually shocks me for Putnam county. Cabell county is already stoned so if they had done this I would not lift an eyebrow but Putnam?
POTUS, Trump Destroyed Joe Biden...politically in the West Virginia 2020 POTUS Primary Election yesterday, losing to Trump by 73,000 vote Trump victory margin.
Biden was even slaughtered much worse in the Georgia 2020 POTUS Primary election, losing to Trump by some 105,000 votes!!! Not a good day at all for Biden and his Democrats.
But...when the “TRUMP” Rallies, come forth within the next week or so...Trump will climb like a rocket headed to outer space!!! Can’t wait!!! Great job, Trump and all the GOP!!!
“...Not a good day at all for Biden and his Democrats...”
True. But should be like this: “Not a good day at all for Biden and his communist, cop-hating RATs.”
IMHO, that’s what the media does so we should give it back to them the same way.

Looks like President has zero problems with WV in November. Too bad Manchin is not up for reelection this year. It's time for him to change parties or get his ass handed to him in an election.
Yea if Biden pisses off the coal miners like Hillary did, it’s all for Trump.
Maybe they are just trying to make money off of Cabell County which is right beside them.
Lotta sick people in Cabell?
West Virginia Senate President Mitch Carmichael (R), lost renomination to a teacher endorsed by the union, Amy Grady, in a three way race (with a third candidate to Carmichael’s right). Grady claims she is conservative.
3 GOP State Sens and 7 Delegates lost renomination.
There is belief that rats voted in the GOP primary.
