A longtime West Virginia lawmaker has resigned in the final week of the 2018 legislative session.
The 39th District seat in the House of Delegates held by 67-year-old Ron Walters is vacant following the Republican insurance agent’s resignation Wednesday after more than 20 years.
Kanawha County Prosecuting Attorney Chuck Miller told the Charleston Gazette-Mail that Walters also has agreed never to seek office again and withdraw a lien against a Wayne County property.
