The West Virginia race is a top target for Republicans hoping to flip a seat to regain control of the Senate.

“The dominoes are really starting to move as soon as Congressman Mooney announced,” Moore said. “I think there’s an absolute laser focus in this state, in terms of the Republican Party in defeating Joe Manchin and 2024. This will take a lot of resources. Joe Manchin certainly is formidable; he won in 2018. And if you’re going to need those types of resources and focus, you better get going early.
Whether he runs as a Democrat is in question, too. After Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, I-Ariz., announced her departure from the Democratic Party last week, Manchin seemed to leave the door open to a party switch during a brief exchange with NBC News.
