Janey McNulty is in the news as a candidate in West Virginia, where the state’s primary election was held under a new photo ID voting law that officials said had few reported problems. The broader election backdrop includes federal lawsuits over West Virginia voter registration lists and ongoing debate over voter ID and citizenship requirements. Other recent state-level developments include a new campaign finance law that hides employer information for larger donations and a court ruling upholding the state’s Medicaid ban on gender-affirming surgery.
