2024 WV Governor's race: on Civil Rights


Patrick Morrisey: When males compete alongside females, fairness evaporates

We are asking the Supreme Court to allow us to enforce the Save Women's Sports Act, which simply demands that all biological males, including those who identify as transgender girls, are ineligible for participation on girls' sports teams. Some will claim this is simply discrimination, but nothing could be further from the truth. If males are allowed to compete alongside females, fairness evaporates.

Steve Williams: Anyone marginalizing individuals doesn't have a place here

Anybody who seeks to marginalize individuals, because they don't look like you or they have a lifestyle that is different from yours, or there are certain things that are present in their life that we don't understand and can't be defined; anybody that seeks to marginalize those individuals, as far as I'm concerned, they don't have a place here. We don't put up with this.

Mac Warner: Tribalism is a threat, not racism

Q: EQUALITY: Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

A: No, tribalism is a threat, not racism. E Pluribus Unum: "Out of Many, One." Making distinctions by racial differences in un-American and the State should not encourage or sanction that type of divisive classification. We are all equal and that is what unites us. We are one human race. We are not groups identified by our biological or anatomical differences.

Q: I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

A: Strongly Disagree
