So I’ve been thinking about DungeonWorld as it compares to D&D, and I was wondering what you guys thought about races affecting ability scores. For example, an elf fighter would get +1 Dexterity, whereas a dwarf fighter would get +1 Constitution, in addition to the normal racial moves. Would this be too much? Should they also get a -1? Is it even necessary?

not needed. The racial moves should give you incentives to behave like that race
Fair enough. I was just thinking that it would help to reinforce a particular play style, but I see what you mean.
Yeah, instead of +1 dex -1 str or whatever, Elven fighters just… have a motivation to put one of their higher stats into dex, because they get precise automatically. Choose stats that make sense for your character concept, and that includes race as well as class.
Tim Deschene I was thinking +1 to the statistic, not +1 ongoing with a stat. That would be OP.
