Early in the term, Warner focused on defending state election autonomy amid federal legislative proposals. On March 24, 2021, he submitted written testimony to the U.S. Rules Committee opposing the For the People Act (H.R. 1), arguing that the bill's provisions for automatic , expanded mail-in voting, and federal oversight would erode state control, create administrative burdens, and undermine public trust in elections by prioritizing access over security. He emphasized 's existing paper-ballot system and strict voter ID laws as models for integrity, stating that federal mandates ignored state-specific contexts and risked selective enforcement. Throughout 2021–2023, Warner advocated for localized election administration to bolster confidence post-2020. In April 2023, he testified before a U.S. House committee on West Virginia's approaches to election security, highlighting the state's decentralized county-led processes, real-time audits, and rejection of unverified mail ballots as key to achieving high —93.5% in the 2022 midterm primaries—without widespread fraud allegations. He collaborated with congressional representatives to secure over $12 million in federal (HAVA) funds for county election upgrades, including secure voting machines and training. In July 2023, Warner joined a national group of secretaries of state in warning against potential federal agency involvement in voter outreach for the 2024 cycle, citing risks of perceived partisanship from entities like the Department of Justice and FBI. On the administrative side, Warner's office expanded business services initiated in his first term, reporting consistent growth in entity formations amid economic recovery efforts. For November 2021 alone, the office registered 856 new businesses, with Wirt County leading at 3.45% growth; similar monthly tallies in 2024 exceeded 1,100 registrations in peak months like August (1,113) and November (1,222), attributed to streamlined online portals and one-stop licensing centers. In January 2024, he launched a public awareness campaign, including a chatbot tool named "SOLO," to educate entrepreneurs on compliance with the federal Corporate Transparency Act's beneficial ownership reporting rules, effective January 1, 2024, to avoid penalties for over 25 million small businesses nationwide.

On economic issues, Warner advocated tax reductions, infrastructure investments in roads, , , and sewer systems, and shifting business incentives toward site preparation rather than direct subsidies to boost workforce participation.

Morrisey won the nomination via plurality in the fragmented contest, later securing the general election on November 5, 2024, against Democrat Steve Williams.

Policy initiatives and achievements

Election integrity and voter confidence measures

During his tenure as West Virginia , Mac Warner prioritized reforms addressing the state's historical issues with election fraud, vote buying, and voter intimidation, implementing measures to secure elections and restore public trust. These efforts included mandatory voter identification at polls, expansion of in-person for 10 days at community locations, and limited absentee-by-mail voting over 46 days restricted to authorized excuses such as illness or . Warner's office also developed technology for secure voting by military and overseas voters, while emphasizing Election Day in-person voting as the most reliable method under local poll workers. A core initiative involved aggressive voter roll maintenance, removing over 400,000 outdated registrations since 2016—equivalent to one in four records—to prevent duplicate or ineligible voting. To enhance verification, Warner established data-sharing agreements with other states in September 2023, enabling cross-checks to detect and deter non-resident voter fraud. All voting systems in incorporate voter-verified paper trails, allowing ballots to be audited manually if needed, with every vote cast producing a physical record reviewable by the voter. Post-election, the state conducts public audits prior to certification, involving hand counts of random precincts to verify machine tallies. Warner launched the "See Something, Text Something" program, enabling citizens to report suspected irregularities via text to a dedicated , promoting vigilance. In August 2024, his administration allocated nearly $1 million in federal grants to counties for cybersecurity upgrades, pollbook accuracy via GIS mapping, and equipment maintenance. These steps contributed to ranking near the top in national voter confidence surveys, such as those from MIT, with state officials reporting all-time high trust levels attributed to transparent, decentralized processes.

Administrative and business reforms

Upon assuming office in January 2017, Mac Warner prioritized streamlining administrative processes within his office and enhancing business formation efficiency. He reduced the office workforce by 15% through and process improvements, enabling the handling of increased filings with fewer resources. These changes included terminating 16 employees early in his tenure to eliminate redundancies and focus on core functions. A key initiative was the expansion of the One Stop Business Center, launched in 2016 and advanced under Warner, which integrated services from five state agencies: the Secretary of State's office, Department of Labor, State Tax Department, Development Center (SBDC), and West Virginia. This portal centralized business registration, annual reports, , and workforce registrations into a single online platform at Business4.WV.gov, reducing the need for businesses to navigate multiple agencies or physical locations. By , the system processed over 1 million transactions, with approximately 99% of business filings conducted online. Warner introduced targeted incentives to promote , including the Young Entrepreneur program waiving annual registration fees for individuals under 30 and the Boots to Business waiver for veterans starting businesses. Additional tools, such as the online Business Startup Wizard launched in February 2019, guided users in selecting optimal corporate structures. The office also established regional resource hubs in Clarksburg and Martinsburg, equipped with SBDC kiosks offering free coaching, workshops, loans, and information on tax incentives. These reforms correlated with growth in business activity; new registrations rose nearly 11% in 2017 compared to the prior year, with monthly reports showing sustained increases, such as 1,222 in November 2024. In 2024, Warner launched public education campaigns to help businesses comply with new federal reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act, further easing administrative burdens. By April 2025, the portal incorporated an AI-powered named Solo to assist with registration queries outside business hours.

Views on election security and controversies

Advocacy for decentralized election systems

Warner has consistently advocated for decentralized election systems, emphasizing local and state control over federal oversight to enhance security and voter trust. In his April 27, 2023, testimony before the U.S. House Committee on Administration, he argued that the U.S. Constitution's Elections Clause vests primary authority in states to determine the "times, places, and manner" of elections, enabling tailored administration that aligns with local needs. He highlighted West Virginia's model, where elections are conducted through county-level clerks with decentralized polling sites and a 10-day period, reducing reliance on centralized federal mechanisms. Central to his position is the view that fosters accountability and mitigates risks associated with uniform national standards. Warner has promoted in-person election-day voting as the "gold standard" for integrity, citing historical fraud issues in —such as and —that were addressed through state-specific reforms rather than federal intervention. Under his tenure, the state removed over 400,000 outdated s since via local maintenance efforts, including programs like "See Something, Text Something" for public reporting of irregularities, which he credits with building confidence through grassroots transparency. He has opposed expansions of federal roles, such as designating agencies as voter registration offices under 14019, arguing they undermine state autonomy and invite inefficiencies. Warner reiterated this advocacy in September 11, 2024, testimony before , urging protection of in election administration amid proposals for national reforms. He has drawn on the Carter-Baker Commission report to caution against widespread mail-in voting, favoring decentralized verification processes that prioritize paper trails and local audits over potentially vulnerable centralized systems. These efforts align with West Virginia's 2022 legislation, signed by Governor , expanding bans on internet-connected voting machines to prevent remote manipulation, thereby reinforcing distributed control at the precinct level. Warner maintains that such decentralization not only complies with constitutional principles but also sustains public perception of fairness, as evidenced by West Virginia's high voter confidence ratings post-reforms.

Assertions about 2020 federal election irregularities

Mac Warner has publicly asserted that the was stolen from , attributing the outcome to deliberate interference by federal intelligence agencies. In a December 2023 forum alongside retired Lt. Gen. , Warner stated, "The election was stolen, and it was stolen by the CIA," implicating the agency in collusion with the FBI and other entities to favor . Central to Warner's claims is an alleged campaign surrounding Hunter Biden's laptop, which he describes as a fabricated psychological operation orchestrated by federal officials to mislead voters. In a December 2023 op-ed, Warner highlighted a letter signed on October 19, 2020, by 51 former intelligence officials—including four ex-CIA directors—claiming the New York Post's reporting on the laptop bore hallmarks of Russian . He cited a May 2023 House Judiciary Committee report revealing that the letter originated from Biden campaign advisor , who suggested it to former CIA Acting Director , who then coordinated its drafting to bolster Biden during the October 22 presidential debate. Warner argued this constituted federal overreach, as the FBI had authenticated the laptop's contents by December 2019 after possessing it for nearly a year, yet failed to counter the narrative and instead urged censorship, a point corroborated by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's August 2022 admission of FBI pressure to suppress related content. During April 27, 2023, testimony before the U.S. House Administration Committee, Warner labeled the letter a "purposeful lie" designed to influence the election, deeming it domestic interference more egregious than actions by adversarial nations like , , or . He called for accountability, including firing involved officials, revoking security clearances, and pursuing criminal charges to deter future manipulations and restore . Warner further contended that procedural deviations in battleground states—such as extending ballot deadlines, accepting unsolicited mail-in votes, and deploying unsupervised drop boxes without legislative approval—facilitated irregularities in violation of Article II of the U.S. Constitution, which reserves election administration to state legislatures. He maintained these actions, combined with federal suppression of information, undermined the election's integrity, though he acknowledged West Virginia's decentralized system avoided similar vulnerabilities locally. These assertions align with broader Republican critiques post-2020 but contrast with findings from federal probes, state audits, and over 60 lawsuits, which identified isolated instances—such as the double-voting cases Warner prosecuted in totaling fewer than 10 convictions—but no systemic irregularities capable of altering national results.

Criticisms from opponents and media

Critics, including outlets, have accused West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner of promoting unsubstantiated conspiracy theories about the 2020 , particularly his December 2023 claim that the (CIA), in collaboration with the (FBI), rigged the outcome to favor . reported that Warner's assertions, made amid his gubernatorial bid, echoed fringe narratives lacking empirical backing from official investigations, with fellow election officials attributing his rhetoric to political ambition rather than evidence. During his 2024 Republican primary campaign for governor, opponents and commentators labeled Warner an "election denier," highlighting his support for the Texas-led lawsuit challenging results in swing states and his advocacy for withdrawing West Virginia from the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC), a voter roll maintenance compact criticized by some as enabling fraud but defended by others as essential for accuracy. The Star Tribune noted that Warner's persistence in questioning the 2020 results placed him among GOP candidates whose skepticism complicated voter choices in a state primary dominated by such views. Local outlets like the Dominion Post critiqued his campaign launch for inflammatory language against state leadership, framing it as divisive amid broader attacks on his policy priorities. Media reports have further faulted Warner's opposition to federal election security partnerships, such as with the (CISA), as potentially undermining defenses against foreign interference and , especially given his testimony before emphasizing state autonomy over collaborative tools. Wired described this stance as part of a partisan rift among Republican officials, arguing it could weaken national safeguards despite Warner's focus on decentralized systems to bolster confidence. Such criticisms often emanate from outlets with documented left-leaning editorial slants, which Warner and supporters contend dismiss legitimate concerns about centralized overreach without addressing anomalies in battleground states' vote processing.

Personal life

Family and residences

Warner married Debbie Law Warner, and the couple has four children, all of whom have served or are serving as officers in the United States military. They have resided primarily in , where they raised their family. Born on February 18, 1955, in Kanawha County, Warner grew up there as a sixth-generation , the son of George "Brud" Warner and Margaret McCoy Warner. His family has deep roots in West Virginia Republican politics and public service; for instance, his brother Kris Warner succeeded him as in 2025, and another brother, Monty Warner, is a retired U.S. Army colonel.

Religious affiliations and community involvement

Mac Warner identifies as a born-again Christian, citing John 3:16 as a guiding principle in his life. He has expressed that his faith compels active service, stating, "My faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I am, whenever I can." Warner attended Ruffner Memorial Presbyterian Church in , during his youth, where he became an . The congregation, historically affiliated with the , hosted multiple worship services and community activities but closed in May 2023 after over a century of operation. In July 2023, Warner launched the "People of Prayer" coalition to engage West Virginia's religious communities in support of his gubernatorial campaign, drawing over 150 participants from all 55 counties. The initiative targeted , with Warner speaking at Faith Church International in Fairmont on July 28, 2023, to rally faith-based endorsements.
