In the race for U.S. Senate, Gov. Jim Justice has a strong advantage over Congressman Alex Mooney in the Republican primary and an edge over incumbent Joe Manchin in a possible General Election matchup.
And new polling shows that in the Republican race for governor, Delegate Moore Capito is leading a field that also includes Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, businessman Chris Miller and Secretary of State Mac Warner.
The poll shows Justice with 58 percent of the likely vote in the Republican primary for Senate, compared to Mooneys 26 percent. Sixteen percent of Republican voters said they are not yet sure.
Justice has a narrower but still substantial lead over incumbent Democratic Senator Joe Manchin if they meet in the General Election, with Justice at 51 percent and Manchin at 38 percent. Eleven percent were not sure.

(21,902 posts)2. What are the chances that Manchin decides not to run?
He's leading the other Republican running, but Justice is just too tough to beat. Perhaps Governor?

(33,424 posts)3. I doubt Manchin will run for re-election.
I think he is more interested in the 'No Labels' group on the national level than another try at an office in WV.
