DCCC's new ad for Anne Barth

Road to 270 on FiveThirtyEight mentions Barth/Capito race (0.00 / 0)

Today we continue our Road to 270 series with the Mountain State, West Virginia

The closest House race is Shelley Moore Caputo (incumbent Republican) versus former Byrd aide Anne Barth. Most rank the race likely Republican, somewhere between solid and lean. It didn't make the Republican "Death List," so Republicans aren't worried about it. The closer drama will be the presidential race, which nearly everyone still expects to go to McCain. When we were in the state, Tom Vogel, Obama's State Director, told us to watch Putnam and Berkeley Counties, where if Obama were running anywhere close to even in those Republican strongholds, he'd win the state.

Sen. Jay at 5 PM at Dem HQ in Martinsburg, Berkeley County. Sign wave at Musselman at 6PM. Debate tonight at 7PM at the high school on Route 11.
