QTrust - West Virginia Slate

Democrats need to gain four seats to take control of the West Virginia Senate. LGBTQ advocates are building momentum by passing local nondiscrimination ordinances. However, given the Republican trifecta in West Virginia, Democrats must retake one of the legislative chambers to be able to leverage this effort for statewide protections. Former Democrat turned Republican Governor Jim Justice is believed to be supportive of the LGBTQ community but has not been pressured due to inaction in the legislature. Anti-equality Attorney General Patrick Morrisey faces a strong challenger in Sam Petsonk.
