Riley Moore holds a commanding lead in the West Virginia 2nd congressional district race because the district has long favored Republican candidates, Moore won his primary unopposed as the incumbent, and independent forecasters rate the seat Solid Republican. The November 3 general election features Democrat Ace Parsi, who narrowly won his May primary and has focused on issues such as data center regulation, but no recent polling or events have narrowed the gap. A single scheduled debate on October 14 offers limited opportunity for shifts. Scenarios that could still alter the outcome include a major scandal, health event, or unusually high Democratic turnout, though the district's partisan composition makes these low-probability developments.
