HINTON W.Va. (Hinton News) – Glenn Elliott, candidate for the U.S. Senate, visited Hinton to introduce himself to voters and to hear their concerns. Along with local volunteers, he knocked on doors in Bellpoint and had some good conversations with voters. He then met with supporters and interested voters at The Market for pizza and conversation.
Glenn Elliott is the two-term mayor of Wheeling where he managed the city’s renewal and revitalization. Working with federal and state agencies, he oversaw the revitalization of the downtown area and the city’s parks and recreational areas. He worked effectively with a bipartisan city council by building relationships with Republicans, as well as Democrats. As a young college graduate, Elliott was a staffer for Senator Byrd. That experience gave him an understanding of how the Senate works, the importance of building long-term relationships and building up seniority to be effective in the Senate.
Glenn Elliott is running to fill the open seat in the U.S. Senate held by retiring Senator Joe Manchin. Elliott is running against Jim Justice, owner of the Greenbrier Resort and current governor of West Virginia.
