PAID POLITICAL COMMENTARY - Don"t shoot yourself in the foot this election

Published Oct. 10, 2024

Greetings from Oregon!

My grade school years in Butte were the happiest years of my childhood. I have never lost my love of Montana.

I was stunned when I found a group of billionaires who wanted to keep their Trump tax breaks were slamming Jon Tester with tv adds to unseat him and put their Minnesota native representative in his place. Jon Tester is a native Montana farmer who still comes to his farm to work the planting and the harvest. He is your guy.

Your other Senator voted against the infrastructure bill and Tester voted for it and brought 3 billion dollars in bridge, highway, and other projects to provide a bunch of jobs for working folks and make Montana better.

As the chairman of the Senate Veterans affairs committee he has been a tireless worker for Montana vets.

Don't shoot yourselves in the foot and replace him with a billionaire's man! Jon is one of the few Senators who actually works and votes in the best interests of his constituents.

I still love Montana and you folks are the envy of many people in states where billionaires flunkies serve their masters. Please, don't be like them. Keep the man who really is your guy, Jon Tester.
