    One way or another, @GregForMontana could win a term as a result of campaign-either in Congress or the Missoula County jail. Maybe both!https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/867714400765038594 …

      Gianforte has proven to be a thug and a liar. If he wins the man it reflects poorly on the voters of Montana.

        POTUS can't label US #FreePress "enemy of the people" without having negative consequences. #Tump's attack on the media has a clear impact.

      it is my understanding, over 50% of voting is early, sadly this may not have any effect on the outcome.
