West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice (R) “said he may not be done with public office when his second term as governor concludes in 2024, and that a seat in the U.S. Senate just might pique his interest,” the Parkersburg News and Sentinel reports.
” The next time one of West Virginia’s two Senate seats is up is 2024, when the seat of current Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) is up for grabs. That coincides with Justice’s term as governor coming to an end.”
