Jefferson County Republicans welcomed U.S. Senate candidate Tim Sheehy on Sept. 29 to their annual Fall Harvest Festival at Kleffner Ranch, where he and a raft of party candidates for state and local offices doubled down on core party themes leading up to the Nov. 5 general election.
“Common sense for Montana means a secure border, safe streets, cheap gas, cops are good, criminals are bad, boys are boys, and girls are girls,” Sheehy said in his keynote address to more than 150 local GOP supporters.
“Those of you who know these elusive Trump-Tester voters, believe it or not, they’re still out there,” he continued. “Trump’s leading the state by 20 points, and I’m up two, three, seven, nine — who knows? When you find these people, don’t be mean! Buy them a coffee, buy them a beer. Sit them down and talk to them about the issues. Because if Jon Tester runs on the issues, he loses. It’s that simple.”
