2020 MT US Senate Election- Bullock-D is the reason why Daines-R is US Senator.

When longtime Democratic US Senator Max Baucus resigned to become Ambassador to China, Bullock picked his Lt Governor John Walsh who had to drop out due to a scandal. If Bullock-D picked Brian Schweitzer-D instead, the race would be a Tossup.

and I still don't. He's now a coal lobbyist. Wasn't Bullock's fault when Daines also cheated. Bullock is okay, he just might not appeal to many since we have so much to choose from. I would prefer to have a woman as our candidate so I won't be supporting white men... even my governor.
