Early campaign support seems strong for Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Reilly Neill, with attendees at her March 6 event in Helena expressing enthusiasm for her people-first approach.
Neill’s platform focuses on funding public schools, supporting ranchers and farmers, protecting public lands, and creating universal healthcare, according to her website. Yet what appears to stand out is her commitment to listening to and serving all Montanans, as shown by her pledge to refuse funds from political action committees and run a truly grassroots campaign.
When Ashley Fischer, co-founder of the Helena volunteer support group Walking Giant, learned of that commitment, “I was like, ‘Oh hell yeah,” she said at last Friday’s event.
