The GOP push to knock out Sen. Joe Manchin is on — 18 months before Election Day
Republican group One Nation, which is aligned with Senate Minority Leader, is unloading more than $1 million on a campaign hitting Manchin for supporting Democrats’ marquee party-line bill last year, according to details shared with POLITICO. Simultaneously, a strategist close to GOP Gov. Jim Justice said that the governor has made up his mind and will likely launch his Senate campaign before the end of the month.

Jim Justice delivers his annual State of the State address in the at the state Capitol in Charleston, on Jan. 11, 2023. | Chris Jackson/AP Photoclaims that “100,000 West Virginia jobs are at risk thanks to Sen. Joe Manchin falling in line with D.C. liberals to pass the Inflation Reduction Act.” And One Nation is signaling more is to come.
He’s also acknowledged Republicans were likely to come after him for supporting the party-line bill. Manchin cut a slimmed-down deal with Schumer last summer after rejecting a more sweeping plan known as “Build Back Better” in 2021.
