Don’t matter. I’m watching WV, OK, and KS to see if every single county is red on election night. Oklahoma cracks me up - very single county has beed red in the last two Presidential elections.
It’s a college town and the city council as well is very liberal. Now let me grab my popcorn and watch this thread go lol
Mon county is pretty even. Inside town limits it tilts blue. Outside of town it tilts red. I think the last presidential election was almost 50/50 in mon county. The house of delegate districts have been gerrymandered by the legislature so much there are basically red/blue seats and the races usually aren’t competitive.
Most liberal county in WV... but it's a college town and a lot of that is Profs etc... remarkably out of touch with the State they reside. I am amazed at the City Council and some of the University people when they scream Charleston needs to give us more... when Charleston has views completely opposite of them. Better move towards those people if you want them to fund you...
The population of Mon county continues to rise despite the fact that Mylan shut down and the state puts less money into wvu every year. It’s evolved into really the economic engine of the area, which also includes southern Pa and Western Maryland.
One would think that the state government would be more supportive. What county sends more tax money than Mon to Charleston every year? Not many if any. As you said politics probably has something to do with the poor roads. Whether its controlled by Ds or Rs, I think most people in state would agree the legislature has been incompetent for most of our lives.
The Dominion Post is unreadable as it has become ridiculously liberal. I cancelled my subscription years ago because it became absurdly one sided.
Those of us who live and work here refer to Morgantown as Berkeley on the Mon.
Every college town is, I believe. You should live in Shepherdstown. It is unbelievable however it gets pretty red once you get 1 mile out of town. At least more red.
Trump beat Biden in Mon county by about 600 votes over 41k votes cast
Thats why they got no $$ for roads. Serves em right. Shittiest roads in the state. ****in joke.
“more than $3.7 billion in surplus tax collections during his two four-year terms as governor.” Sorry you suffer from fat phobia.
I didn't say he did a terrible job but he should pay people who work for him. To me an employer who doesn't pay his workers and contractors is the worst
His people have all been paid and on time... if you are arguing that out of state banks should get back what he owes them then you'd have a point.....
As far as I am aware not one day of salary has gone unpaid to the working man at anything Justice owns ...
