Patrick Morrisey and Steve Williams, the Republican and Democrat seeking to be West Virginia’s next governor, on Wednesday laid out their plans for how they would tackle some of the state’s pressing issues: population decline, economic development and the substance abuse crisis.
The candidates, who haven’t publicly debated, spoke back-to-back at the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Meeting and Business Summit at The Greenbrier resort in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.
