NEW AD: Smokejumpers have a saying, “ask for a stronger back, not a lighter load.” And that’s what Montanans do.

In a new letter, 22 Democratic state lawmakers in Montana back #MTSEN independent candidate Seth Bodnar and ask Democratic nominee Alani Bankhead to drop out:
Everyone sees what you are doing here, @MTJakeEaton. Montana Dems and Independents would be a fools to take advice from the worst GOP hack of them all.
Never gets old watching all these @mtdems trying to get the woman in 2nd place who is the party’s actual nominee to drop out in favor of a dude in 3rd place that didn’t have the courage to run under his own party’s label. #mtpol

@jontester has always represented the good I see in Montana. The kindness, the hard work, the commitment to place, and the willingness to uplift other Montanans. He is a North Star for Montana Values.
Thank you, Montana. Serving as your senator was the honor of my lifetime. This is the greatest state in the greatest country in the world and I’ll always be proud to call Montana my home.
