West Virginia Constitution is Unclear on Special Gubernatorial Election in 2011

Most observers predict that West Virginia Governor Joe Manchin will be elected to the U.S. Senate on November 2, 2010.  West Virginia elects its Governors in presidential election years, so assuming Manchin is elected to the Senate, he will then resign from being Governor halfway through his gubernatorial term.

This article explains why no one seems to know if West Virginia will then hold a special election for Governor.  The problem is the West Virginia Constitution, which is laughably unclear about that.

  1. Lincoln really did an EVIL number creating WV out of VA via the Union Army in 1863 — in a total EVIL fraud machination — a need to have 2 more party hack U.S.A. Elephant Senators during the Civil War.

    What percentage of the party hacks in the WV regime are inbred MORONS — literally ???

  2. What is the petition signature requirement for this special election for US Senate and when is the deadline?
