Moore Capito (R), Patrick Morrisey (R), Chris Miller (R), and Mac Warner (R) are running in the Republican primary election for Governor of West Virginia on May 14, 2024.
Capito, Miller, and Morrisey each say they are the race’s most conservative candidate, while Warner says the race is not about being the most conservative.
All four candidates have aligned their campaign platforms with former president Donald Trump (R). Morrisey and Warner say they support America First policies, a term often associated with Trump and candidates who say they support Trump’s agenda. Miller describes himself as a Trump conservative and the most successful fundraiser for Trump in West Virginia. Capito says he would work with Trump on energy independence and wants Trump to receive the most votes of any presidential candidate in West Virginia’s history.
