BILL WOOTON FOR SUPREME COURT
Announcement



You may not know me, so I wanted to introduce myself.  I’m Bill Wooton - a candidate for Justice of the West Virginia Supreme Court (division 2) in our June 9th election.  I’m running because we need to restore integrity to our courts.

 I’m a small-town lawyer practicing in Beckley, where I live with Shir, my wife of 51 years. My career includes working as a prosecutor, as an Assistant Attorney General, serving in the 26 years in the legislature and in the West Virginia National Guard, where I retired as a Colonel.

 During my 26 years as a state legislator no one ever even questioned my integrity. While I’ve worked on many critical issues over the years, one of my proudest accomplishments was authoring and passing the legislation that prohibited the importation of out-of-state garbage to West Virginia.  Protecting the pristine beauty of West Virginia has always been one of my top priorities - so that everyone’s children and my five grandchildren could have safe drinking water.
 
 Now I’m looking to serve the people of West Virginia as a Justice of the West Virginia Supreme Court. My whole life has been committed to the principles of integrity, honesty, and fairness.  I hope you agree that those are the values we need on our Supreme Court.

 You can learn more about me at my website, http://wootonforjustice.com/. I am asking for your vote on June 9th to bring honor and integrity back to the West Virginia Supreme Court.

 Thank you for your time.

 Sincerely,

 Bill Wooton
