W.Va. GOP Advised to Keep Primary Open

A state Republican Party committee has concluded that the West Virginia GOP should continue to allow unaffiliated voters to cast ballots in its primary elections, "as has been the case since the 1980s," the state party announced Friday.

"The committee will present its recommendation to the next full meeting of the state committee, scheduled for June 13 in Martinsburg," the release said.
