Montana Gov. Bullock hires top adviser with eye on 2020
Montana Gov. Steve Bullock has hired veteran Democratic operative Jenn Ridder to work for his PAC, in the latest sign that the Western Democrat is nearing a presidential run.
Ridder will join Bullock’s Big Sky Values PAC as a senior adviser, but she would be an obvious choice to manage Bullock’s campaign should he decide to run for president. Ridder ran Colorado Gov. Jared Polis’ successful campaign in 2018 and previously worked at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and was former Colorado Sen. Mark Udall’s deputy campaign manager in 2014.
