GOP Sen. Capito Wins Re-Election In Packed Primary Field

Capito is fourth in the Senate Republican majority leadership and serves as chairwoman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee

“Every stop I make, I kind of remind everybody the relationship that we’ve had over the years and how I know local issues,” Capito recently told The Parkersburg News and Sentinel.

“I think it’s important to remind everybody about the relationship, talk about President Trump’s endorsement and my conservative record, and how I want to go back. Because I’m in a

position now where I’m chairman of (a) committee, chairman of subcommittees, and I’m on the leadership team, where I really could be more influential than ever,” Capito added.
