Jon Tester, D-Mont., speaks during a town hall hosted by the Democratic lawmaker at Montana Technological University, Nov.

At a fundraiser last month in Helena, Mont., Tester described what it's like being a Democrat in an increasingly Republican state. "Montanans understand that you need to work together. They understand the division is bad," Tester said when discussing his approach to reaching across the aisle."And they appreciate when they have someone who's willing to roll up their sleeves and get things done."That approach also means Big Sky voters at times hear talking points from their lone Democrat in Congress they may be more familiar hearing from GOP candidates.

Sheehy, a veteran and founder of an aerial firefighting company, is fully embracing Former President Donald Trump's brand of conservatism and using that as the reason why voters should elect him instead of Tester.
