The Wheeling Alternative
Campaign ads, endorsements, and ethics
The McKinley/Mooney primary fight

David McKinley is just another politician you cannot trust. He only stands with President Trump when it is convenient for him. He was quoted in the . . .
It's now the Trump Party in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia

Join us April 25th at 7 pm in the Byrd Center Auditorium for our latest event, A Town Hall Meeting with Congressman David McKinley. Please note: We did attempt to reach out to Mr. Mooney yet his campaign schedule did not allow for . . .
Trump’s Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, in Wheeling to endorse David McKinley
Do you think any of our local reporters/stenographers asked Pompeo about his comments about Putin and the Ukraine?

What has Senator Manchin been doing?
