There are no Marion County highway
construction projects in the $1 billion road bond amendment facing West
Virginians in an October 7 election.
Projects are planned for 18 counties
if the bond issue passes.
They are in Berkeley, Cabell
(Huntington), Hancock, Harrison (Clarksburg), Jefferson, Kanawha (Charleston),
Lewis, Mingo (Williamson), Monongalia (Morgantown), Morgan, Ohio (Wheeling),
Pendleton, Putnam, Roane, Tucker, Wayne, Wood (Parkersburg) and Wetzel
counties.
Governor Jim Justice, running as a
Democrat, won Marion County in 2016 by 52.5% to 38.6% for State Senate
president Bill Cole. Later, billionaire Justice switched his party affiliation
to Republican in an apparent attempt to court President Trump’s favor.
