Mountain State Spotlight is your home for elections reporting that is less about 30-second campaign spots and horse race polls — and more about you, your family and your community.

During the 2024 election season, we’ve been reporting from across the state, telling important stories about the issues that our communities face and providing West Virginia voters with essential information about the candidates who are asking to lead our state for years to come.

We’re focused on listening to you and providing the information you need before, during and after the election.
