November Ballot Questioned
WEST VIRGINIA....
In West Virginia, the special election for U.S. Senate will be on the same ballot as the general election on Tuesday, November 2nd. Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper says those who vote straight ticket will, potentially, only have to vote once, but that raises some issues that need to be addressed. Secretary of State Natalie Tennant says the U.S. Senate race will be at the top of the one ballot and straight ticket voting will be an option. Tennant points out that the Senate race, Supreme Court race and the 10th Senatorial District race are all special elections in November. Tennant says they will all fall in line, but Carper maintains any issues need to be raised now, before Election Day.
