Another Reason To Be Hopeful For 2018


This is West Virginia Democratic State Sen. Richard Ojeda, who is running in the 3rd Congressional District.  This speaks to the quality of candidates Democrats are recruiting nationwide to retake the House of Representatives in 2018 (h/t Balloon Juice):



The primary is May 8, 2018. This is an open seat, as Republican incumbent Evan Jenkins is leaving to run for the Senate. Other Democrats in the primary race so far are Huntington mayor Steve Williams and the CEO of Huntington's bus system Paul Davis. The fact that there are credible Democrats lining up to run in this red district (that wasn't always red) is a hopeful sign of a party ready to compete everywhere.
