Ronny Douglas Stollings (born April 24, 1955) is a Democratic member of the West Virginia Senate, who represented the 7th district from 2006 to 2022. The 7th District is based in Southern West Virginia, covering all of Boone, Lincoln, and Logan Counties and parts of Mingo and Wayne Counties. Stollings' success in the district is notable, considering Donald Trump won the district by a 78%-19% margin in 2016, which was Trump’s best performance in any of the state’s 17 Senate districts.[1]
