Montana’s U.S. House race still the sleeper – but slowly creeping on the radar
HELENA- A Democrat hasn’t won Montana’s lone U.S. House seat for 24 years, but political prognosticators are saying in this unusual year, Democratic challenger Kathleen Williams could make things interesting.
“It could potentially be a very competitive race,” Carroll College political scientist Jeremy Johnson told MTN News this week. “Kathleen Williams is fundraising well, which suggests that donors see her as potentially a very competitive candidate.”
Williams, 57, a former state lawmaker from Bozeman, raised about $500,000 in the seven weeks ending June 30, and has since been traveling the state to talk up her record as someone who can work with Democrats and Republicans to get things done.
