Summary
Republican West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice has won the Senate seat previously held by retiring independent Sen. Joe Manchin, NBC News projects.
Justice’s victory moves Republicans closer to taking control of the Senate; they now need just one more seat if Democrats retain the White House.
Justice, initially elected as a Democrat in 2016 before switching to the GOP, defeated Democrat Wheeling Mayor Glenn Elliott in a race heavily favored for Republicans.

Just donate to this dude to switch back to Dems. He’s a fair weather grifter anyway
He isn’t in great health and apparently misses a lot of legislative sessions. This might not be a long term problem
He’s 73 but somehow looks even older.
