Incumbent Terry Funk Sypolt retains seat in 52nd District

KINGWOOD — Although the numbers are unofficial, it appears incumbent Republican Terry Funk Sypolt took the 52nd District House of Delegates  with a lead of 908 votes.

Sypolt received 3,427 votes and her opponent,  Democrat Junior “JR” Wolfe, received  2,519.

“I am overwhelmed by the support I received,”   Sypolt said. “I would like everyone to know how much I appreciate their support and past support. I will continue to work on the issues at hand and continue to be their conservative voice.”

Prior to her four years as a West Virginia state delegate,  Sypolt served as Preston County Assessor for 16 years.

 Wolfe  has been a member of Rotary International since 2002. During that period, he led a team to the Philippines, where he stayed for a month, sharing with Rotarians there about U.S. government, culture and home lives.

Wolfe did not return a call in time for this report.
