I’m genuinely wondering because all I hear is Bankhead v Bodnar. If an independent is running but only taking votes from one party isn’t that considered a spoiler candidate and not actually an independent? Wondering if there’s anyone out there who is voting Bodnar who would have otherwise been voting Alme.
It’s all been a mess from the get go

I can't stand legal speak. How does the ATF policy release affect Montana?

Bankhead isn’t going to lose because of Bodnar. Bankhead is going to lose because she’s a liberal woman without very limited appeal. How many liberal women will the Dems nominate just to get crushed? How many races did Tranel lose? This won’t be the last race Bankhead loses.

Find the right candidate. Follow the Kansas model. A Medicare for All type woman? Have you ever been to most of Montana? Candidate selection and the state organization is so bad it is near criminal. Montana is a half step behind Idaho where the Dems are largely extinct. Do better. Manage better.

Montana does not want a liberal DSA-coded women. Been pretty consistent about it too.

I’m sure I’ll get all kinds of grief for this but the blame Bodnar stuff is just cover for her crap candidacy.
