PRINCETON, W.Va. – You could learn something about Eric Porterfield by reading the writing on the wall. Literally.

Porterfield, 44, was elected in November to serve the West Virginia House of Delegates, after surviving a crowded Republican primary by an eight-vote margin. He believes he will be the second blind member of the chamber. Delegate Robert Hunt, D-Barbour, was the first, elected in 1948.
