A new poll in Montana finds Tim Sheehy (R) leading Matt Rosendale (R) in a Republican primary to take on incumbent Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT), 40% to 24% with 31% still undecided.
Politico: “Sheehy’s campaign has been on air since July, with an ad buy totaling more than $1.5 million, and a pro-Sheehy super PAC also went up with a radio ad in October. Both have largely aired positive spots that stress Sheehy’s background as a Navy SEAL-turned-aerial firefighter.”
