KENOVA, W.Va. -- Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin made a pit stop in West Virginia on her way to battleground state Ohio.
The Alaska governor and her family spent about 25 minutes in the state Sunday as their two-engine plane touched down at Tri-State Airport in Kenova. She made no remarks.
About a dozen supporters greeted Palin as she left the aircraft holding her infant son, Trig. Other members of her family were traveling with her.
A small group of protesters also was on hand as the Palins arrived.
After the brief stop, Palin and her political entourage boarded a bus and headed to the Ohio campaign rally accompanied by a motorcade.
GOP Presidential candidate John McCain and Palin are due in Virginia Monday for a rally.
