Even though Donald Trump is widely popular in West Virginia, the ocrat holds a lead because many voters are separating their feelings about the incumbent senator from their views of the president. The Monmouth University Poll also finds that the closely watched 3 rd gressional District contest is tighter, with ocrat Richard Ojeda having a very slight lead over ublican Carol Miller at this time. West Virginia Senate In the race for U.S. Senate, holds a 4 to 39% lead over among all potential voters that is voters who have participated in an election since 2010 or have newly registered to vote (a group that represents about 7 of all registered voters). Another support Don Blankenship, who is seeking to run as the stitution Party candidate after losing his bid for the GOP nomination. West Virginia has a sore loser law that may prevent him from appearing on the general election ballot. When Blankenship s supporters are reallocated to their second choice, maintains a 49% to 4 lead. The race looks very similar using two different likely voter models. A historical midterm model gives a 49% to 4 lead over with Blankenship in the race, and a 5 to 4 lead without. Using a model that includes a turnout surge in areas where ocrats tend to perform more strongly gives a a 5 to 39% lead when including Blankenship and 5 to 4 lead without the stitution Party candidate. s support is broad based, but he does especially well among voters age 65 and older (5 to 3 for ). In addition to holding an 8 - advantage among self-identified 1

Monmouth University Polling Institute 06/20/18 ocrats, the incumbent has a 5-3 lead among independents. also nabs 1 of the ublican vote against 7 for. West Virginia may be a deep red in presidential elections, but Joe has carved out a niche for himself, especially among older voters who see him as the type of ocrat they used to support for decades, said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute. an 8-year incumbent as well as a former governor is doing well despite the popularity of Pres. Trump, who earns a 6 approve to 29% disapprove rating from voters in West Virginia. In fact, nearly half (49%) say they strongly approve of the job Trump is doing. A plurality (4) of voters say that has not been supportive enough of Trump, compared to 3 who say the ocratic senator has offered the right amount of support and 1 who say he has been too supportive. Furthermore, 6 say they support what Trump is doing on most issues and just 29% oppose. Nearly 6-in-10 (5) say it is very important for them to cast a vote for gress that shows how they feel about the president. Among those who say that Trump is a very important factor in their vote, holds a nominal 4 to 4 lead over. But among the 4-in-10 voters who say that Trump is not a very important consideration in their vote, has a sizable 5 to 3 advantage. is ahead in this race largely because of voters who are focused on how they feel about the person currently occupying the senate seat rather than the occupant of the Oval Office, said Murray. Half (5) of West Virginia s voters say understands the day to day concerns of people like them compared to 4 who say he does not. Only 3 feel that the state s Attorney General who also once ran for gress in New Jersey understands their concerns while 4 say he does not. More West Virginia voters (4) have a favorable opinion of than have an unfavorable one (3), while 2 express no opinion. is not as well known or well liked, having a 2 favorable and 3 unfavorable rating, with 4 expressing no opinion. For the record, Blankenship who served jail time for safety violations that led to the death of 29 coal miners is largely unpopular, earning a 1 favorable to 5 unfavorable rating from voters statewide with 3 offering no opinion. WV-03 House The contest for the open seat in West Virginia s 3 rd gressional District is tight, with ocrat Ojeda at 4 and ublican Miller at 4. Currently, likely voter models give the edge to Ojeda with a 4 to 4 lead in a historical midterm turnout scenario and a 4 to 39% lead using a ocratic surge model. 2

Monmouth University Polling Institute 06/20/18 More WV-03 voters (4) say Ojeda understands the day to day concerns of people like them than say he does not (2). By comparison, 3 feel that Miller understands their concerns as opposed to 2 who say she does not. More WV-03 voters (3) have a favorable opinion of Ojeda than an unfavorable one (1), but half (5) express no opinion. Miller gets a 2 favorable and 1 unfavorable rating, with 6 expressing no opinion. Unlike other hotly contested House races in the country where dislike of the president is giving ocrats a boost, this West Virginia district seems to be competitive because the ocratic candidate has his own populist persona. But neither candidate is particularly well know yet, so this dynamic could change said Murray. Of note, interviews for the poll were nearly complete before an interview was published this week in which Ojeda said that he voted for Trump in 2016. Pres. Trump earns a 6 approve including 49% who strongly approve to 3 disapprove job rating from voters in WV-03. Similarly, 6 say they support what Trump is doing on most issues and just 29% oppose. Nearly 6-in-10 (59%) say it is very important for them to cast a vote for gress that shows how they feel about the president. Among those who say that Trump is a very important factor in their vote, Miller holds a small 4 to 4 lead over Ojeda. But among the 4-in-10 voters who say that Trump is not very important to their vote, Ojeda has a sizable 4 to 3 advantage. Other WV House races ublican incumbents hold sizable leads in the state s other two congressional districts. In WV- 01, David McKinley has a 6 to 2 lead over ocratic challenger Kendra Fershee among all potential voters and a 7 to 2 lead among likely voters in both models. In WV-02, Alex Mooney has a 5 to 3 lead over ocratic challenger Talley Sergent among all potential voters and a 5 to 3 lead among likely voters in both models. While the sample sizes for these two electorates are small (n=87 for WV-01 and n=138 for WV-02), the GOP candidates leads are outside the margin of error for the gap in all cases (maximum +/-14. for WV-01 and +/-13. for WV-02). The Monmouth University Poll was conducted by telephone from 14 to 19, with 653 West Virginia voters, which includes a sample of 428 voters in West Virginia s 3 rd gressional District the sample was weighted to ensure that the statewide results reflect the appropriate share of voters in each congressional district. The poll was conducted by the Monmouth University Polling Institute in West Long Branch, NJ. The statewide results in this release have a margin of error of +/- 3.8 percentage points for the full sample and +/- 4.3 percentage points for the likely voter models. The error of the gap between the two 3

Monmouth University Polling Institute 06/20/18 candidates vote share (i.e. the margin of the lead ) is +/- 5.4 percentage points for the full sample and +/- 6.0 percentage points for the likely voter models. The WV-03 results have a margin of error of +/- 4.7 percentage points for the full sample and +/- 5.3 percentage points for the likely voter models. The error of the gap between the two candidates vote share (i.e. the margin of the lead ) is +/- 6.6 percentage points for the full sample and +/- 7.4 percentage points for the likely voter models.

This includes 390 contacted by a live interviewer on a landline telephone and 263 contacted by a live interviewer on a cell phone. Monmouth is responsible for all aspects of the survey design, data weighting and analysis. Final sample is weighted for region, party registration, age, gender, education and race based on state voter registration list and U.S. Census information. Data collection support provided by Braun Research (field) and L2 (voter sample). For results based on this sample, one can say with 9 confidence that the error attributable to sampling has a maximum margin of plus or minus 3.8 percentage points (unadjusted for sample design). Sampling error can be larger for sub-groups (see table below). In addition to sampling error, one should bear in mind that question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of opinion polls.
