If West Virginia voters wanted to massively increase their chances of getting a higher minimum wage, they had an obvious choice just three months ago: vote for a Democrat for Senate. They didn't, because they care more about culture-war stuff than economics.

This is right but it doesn’t seem to support Manchin’s reticence on the issue, except I suppose to the extent that the modern culture war is so all-consuming that even the minimum wage becomes a culture war issue when passed by democrats (which may be the truth)
