Bill Cole in 2016 WV Governor's race
On Drugs:
People who sell drugs belong in jail
It is incumbent upon state government to step up to the challenge and be a partner in combatting our state's growing drug epidemic. It is killing our children, tearing apart families and destroying communities.
Bill Cole is committed to helping those addicted get the help they need, but for anyone who sells drugs, he is just as determined to make sure they are put in jail where they belong.

On Homeland Security:
Honor and support military as guardians of our freedoms
We as a nation may be war weary, but the threats to our freedom and the quality of life we value have never been higher.
Our freedoms are paid for in time, sacrifice, injury and sadly death by the men and women we must always honor--our veterans.ÿ

On Technology:
Recommends action--not more studies--on transportation
We must repair existing roads and develop key transportation networks to critical markets so that we can better take advantage of our state's prime location. The state has studied our transportation needs enough.
Bill Cole will act by curbing waste, fraud and abuse in the Department of Transportation. In the Cole Administration, priority one will be on repairing and refurbishing our state's infrastructure--not managing and studying it.
