Can you stop scrolling for just a second? Brand new polling shows Seth in a dead heat with DC insiders’ handpicked candidate. Seth and Kurt Alme are exactly tied, 49% to 49%. That’s why the political establishment is already preparing to spend millions to elect Steve Daines’ hand-picked successor. In a race this close, every single dollar makes a difference. If you’re with us in fighting for true leadership that answers to the people of Montana, not Washington elites, will you chip in and help us meet this moment?
