Rick Breckenridge, a Libertarian and a surveyor, cited his anger with an anonymous campaign mailer encouraging voters to choose him over Rosendale because of privacy concerns. The Republican nominee said Tester's allies were behind the message, and he said he was honored to have Breckenridge's backing.

I love it when a dirty tricks blow up in the perpetrators’ faces. There is a time to choose the Libertarian alternative. This is not one of them.

You have to wonder if Trump being president has some kind of trickle down effect on the goings on because WHEN was the LAST TIME any third party candidate did an R a favor instead of a D?

Does Montana have early voting?

If yes, I worry about the number of people who may have cast a vote for the Libertarian and now can’t change their vote to Rosendale.

Rosendale will win big. Trump won MT by 40 points in 2016 and is enormously popular there.

the only libertarian I have EVER heard of that had any qualms with being the sole reason that a liberal is being sent to high office.

. . . and an expert who spoke with the Falls Tribune said it was unlikely the decision would sway the results with hundreds of thousands of ballots already mailed in.

The dems are trying to siphon off Republican botes in Indiana by promoting the libertarian candidate for Senate in mailings targeted to registered Republicans.

Wonderful. Now we need the REPUBLICAN senate candidate to bow out in New Mexico thereby giving a chance for Gary Johnson a statewide winner from years ago.
